Pregnane X Receptor‒4β‐Hydroxycholesterol Axis in the Regulation of Overweight‐ and Obesity‐Induced Hypertension
Background Mechanisms mediating hypertensive effects of overweight and obesity have not been fully elucidated. We showed previously that activation of pregnane X receptor (PXR) by rifampicin elevates 24‐hour blood pressure (BP) and plasma 4β‐hydroxycholesterol (4βHC), agonist for liver X receptor (L...
