[PDF][PDF] The phenobarbital response enhancer module in the human bilirubin UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase UGT1A1 gene and regulation by the nuclear receptor CAR

…, H Kojima, A Ueda, S Kakizaki, K Yoshinari… - …, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
The UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase, UGT1A1, is the critical enzyme responsible for detoxification
of the potentially neurotoxic bilirubin by conjugating it with glucuronic acid. For decades, …

Identification of the nuclear receptor CAR: HSP90 complex in mouse liver and recruitment of protein phosphatase 2A in response to phenobarbital

K Yoshinari, K Kobayashi, R Moore, T Kawamoto… - FEBS …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
The nuclear receptor CAR, a phenobarbital (PB)‐responsive transcription factor, translocates
into the nucleus of hepatocytes after PB induction. In non‐induced mice, CAR forms a …

Profiling of bisphenol A and eight of its analogues on transcriptional activity via human nuclear receptors

…, S Kitamura, N Uramaru, K Sugihara, K Yoshinari - Toxicology, 2019 - Elsevier
Several bisphenol A (BPA) analogues have been detected in environmental samples,
foodstuffs, and/or human biological samples, and there is concern regarding their potential …

Constitutive androstane receptor transcriptionally activates human CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 genes through a common regulatory element in the 5′-flanking region

K Yoshinari, N Yoda, T Toriyabe, Y Yamazoe - Biochemical pharmacology, 2010 - Elsevier
Phenobarbital has long been known to increase cellular levels of CYP1A1 and CYP1A2
