| NR1I2 - Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 1 Group I Member 2 / Pregnane X Receptor Abbreviation: PXR, NR1I2 Alternative Names: Pregnane X Receptor, Steroid and Xenobiotic Receptor (SXR) Type: Ligand-activated nuclear receptor / transcription factor / xenobiotic sensor Function: PXR is a ligand-activated nuclear receptor expressed predominantly in the liver and intestine. It heterodimerizes with RXR and regulates genes involved in xenobiotic metabolism, drug transport, bile-acid homeostasis, lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, inflammation, and detoxification. Major downstream targets include CYP3A4 and multiple drug-transport proteins. Cancer: ↕ Context-dependent. PXR activation can promote cancer-cell survival, proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and chemotherapy resistance by inducing drug-metabolizing enzymes and efflux transporters and by modulating apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory signaling. However, PXR can also exert protective or tumor-suppressive effects in selected tissues and disease contexts, so its cancer direction should be interpreted by tumor type and ligand. Favorable Direction in Cancer: Context-dependent. In tumors where PXR promotes drug resistance or tumor progression, ↓ PXR activity is generally favorable. |
