产品描述:
The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a nuclear receptor that acts as a bile acid sensor, protecting cells and organs against bile acid toxicity and coordinating cholesterol metabolism, lipid homeostasis, and absorption of dietary fats and vitamins. Fexaramine is an FXR agonist (EC50 = 25 nM) that demonstrates 100-fold increased affinity to FXR compared to endogenous bile acids and 3-fold increased potency compared to the high affinity FXR agonist GW 4064 (Item No. 10006611; EC50 = 80 nM).{28351} Fexaramine does not display activity at the following nuclear receptors: hRXRα, hPPARαγδ, mPXR, hPXR, hLXRα, hTRβ, hRARβ, mCAR, mERRγ, or hVDR.{28351}
