Quantifying expression and metabolic activity of genes regulated by pregnane X receptor in primary human hepatocyte spheroids

Xenoreceptors of the nuclear receptor superfamily, such as pregnane X receptor (PXR), are liver-enriched ligand-activated transcription factors regarded as crucial sensors in xenobiotic exposure and detoxification. PXR controls transcription of many drug-handling genes and influx/efflux transporters, ... View More
