Pregnane X receptor exacerbates nonalcoholic fatty liver disease accompanied by obesity- and inflammation-prone gut microbiome signature

2021-01-26

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a drug receptor with novel functions in promoting non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We hypothesize that PXR worsens NAFLD accompanied by gut dysbiosis. Wild-type and PXR-knockout mice were fed control or high fat diet (HFD) for 16-weeks. Serum parameters, liver histopathology, transcriptomic profiling, 16S-rDNA sequencing, and bile acid (BA) metabol...
