Figure 4 Yes-associated protein-mediated transcription inhibition and feedback activation of farnesoid X receptor by taurocholate. Yes-associated protein (YAP) activated by taurocholic acid recruits histone deacetylase 1 through the YAP-transcriptional enhanced associate domain complex, thereby suppressing the transcriptional activity of farnesoid X receptor. Concurrently, accumulated taurocholic acid further activates YAP through a feedback mechanism involving receptors such as sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 2. YAP: Yes-associated protein; TEAD: Transcriptional enhanced associate domain; HDAC: Histone deacetylase; FXR: Farnesoid X receptor; TCA: Taurocholic acid; BA: Bile acid.
