Therapeutic Target Details
Target ID: | T41 |
Target Name: | X-box-binding protein 1 |
Synonyms: | XBP-1; XBP1; Tax-responsive element-binding protein 5, TREB-5 |
GENE: | XBP1 |
Action: | inhibitor |
Class: | Protein |
UniProtKB ID: | P17861 |
Entry Name: | XBP1_HUMAN |
Related Drugs: | None |
Mechanism: | The severity of liver disease in patients with NASH was positively correlated with XBP1 expression. Macrophage XBP1 exacerbates the development of steatohepatitis by increasing M1 macrophage transition and pro-inflammatory cytokines secretion, which promote lipid accumulation and inflammatory response in hepatocyte. Macrophage Xbp1 depletion inhibits fibrogenesis and hepatic stellate cells activation. Hepatocyte XBP1 aggravates the development of steatohepatitis by promoting lipid accumulation via enhancing lipogenesis and inhibiting lipolysis. Pharmacological XBP1 inhibitors might bring light to the treatment of steatohepatitis. |
