We characterize the ability of the liver X receptor (LXRalpha [NR1H3] and LXRbeta [NR1H2]) agonist, T0901317, to activate the farnesoid X receptor (FXR [NR4H4]). Although T0901317 is a much more potent activator of LXR than FXR, this ligand actually activates FXR more potently than a natural bile acid FXR ligand, chenodeoxycholic acid. Thus, the FXR activity of T0901317 must be considered when utilizing this agonist as a pharmacological tool to investigate LXR function. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
