Abstract
► FXR transactivates genes involved in bile acid, glucose and fat homeostasis. ► FXR negatively regulates genes (via transrepression) involved in inflammation. ► Therefore, side effects will probably occur when full FXR agonists are used in clinic. ► Post-translational modifications differentiate between transactivation/-repression. ► Unraveling the mechanisms of FXR signaling enables selective FXR ligand design.
