1.14.14.23 | metabolism |
bile acids such as chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) activate farnesoid X receptor FXR to increase transcription of small heterodimer partner SHP, an atypical nuclear receptor that lacks a DNA binding domain and represses CYP7A1 activation by suppression of transcription factors, liver receptor homolog-1 (NR5A2) and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4a (NR2A1), which are essential for CYP7A1 expression. A second negative feedback mechanism on CYP7A1 is found in the intestine, where activation of FXR induces fibroblast growth factor 15/19, a hormonal signaling molecule that represses CYP7A1 through interaction with the liver fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 via the c-Jun signaling pathway.

1.14.14.23 | metabolism |
hepatic conversion to bile acids is a major elimination route for cholesterol in mammals. CYP7A1 catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in classic bile acid biosynthesis, converting cholesterol to 7alpha-hydroxycholesterol. Hydroxylation of the ring system of cholesterol in a regio- and stereospecific manner with further oxidation and shortening of the side chain produces water-soluble bile acids with powerful detergent properties to emulsify dietary lipids. Bile acids also serve as signaling molecules that bind to G-protein-coupled receptors and nuclear hormone receptors that regulate lipid, glucose, and energy metabolism |

1.14.14.23 | metabolism |
HSF-1 deletion reduces atherosclerosis and enhances dietary cholesterol metabolism, by not only inducing hepatic MDR1/Pgp but also by enhancing CYP7A1 gene expression in the liver. HSF-1 is a metabolic regulator of dietary cholesterol |
