FXR-mediated recruitment of PPP1CB suppresses SMAD2/3 phosphorylation to mitigate pulmonary fibrosis
2026-07-24
Abstract excerpt
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and fatal interstitial lung disease with limited treatment options and poorly understood molecular underpinnings. Dysregulated TGF-β/SMAD signaling is a key driver of fibrotic remodeling, promoting persistent myofibroblast activation and excessive extracellular matrix deposition. Here we identify the Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a bile acid activated nuclear rece...
