Farnesoid X Receptor Activation Attenuates Intestinal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in Rats.
The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is abundantly expressed in the ileum, where it exerts an enteroprotective role as a key regulator of intestinal innate immunity and homeostasis, as shown in pre-clinical models of inflammatory bowel disease. Since intestinal ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is charact...
