Description
Summary:Currently, unraveling the enigmatic realm of drug targets for cerebral disorders poses a formidable challenge. Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5), also known as G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1, is a specific bile acid receptor. Widely distributed across various tissues, TGR5 orchestrates a myriad of biological functions encompassing inflammation, energy metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, immune responses, cellular proliferation, apoptosis, and beyond. Alongside its well-documented implications in liver diseases, obesity, type 2 diabetes, tumors, and cardiovascular diseases, a growing body of evidence accentuates the pivotal role of TGR5 in cerebral diseases. Thus, this comprehensive review aimed to scrutinize the current insights into the pathological mechanisms involving TGR5 in cerebral diseases, while contemplating its potential as a promising therapeutic target for cerebral diseases.
