Abstract

Two nuclear receptors of xenobiotic drugs, PXR and CAR, are central regulators of detoxification enzymes. New studies extend the role of these receptors to a natural detoxification process. They coordinate induction of proteins for storage, glucuronidation, and canalicular transport of bilirubin.
