Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA)-Molecular Basis of Disease, 2011•ElsevierNuclear receptors (NRs) play a key role in the transcriptional control of critical steps of
hepatobiliary transport and phase I/II metabolism of endo-and xenobiotics such as bile acids
and drugs. Apart from these metabolic roles, NRs may also play a key role in the control of
hepatic inflammation. Hereditary and acquired alterations of NRs contribute to our
understanding of the pathogenesis of cholestasis and gallstone disease. Moreover, NRs
may represent attractive drug targets for these disorders. This article is part of a Special …
