“…e NRs involved in the progress of gastrointestinal in ammation and intestinal mucosal barrier function mainly include farnesoid X receptor (FXR) [55], pregnane X receptor (PXR) [56], vitamin D receptor (VDR) [57], constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) [58], peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor c (PPARc) [59], retinoic acidrelated orphan receptor c (RORc) [60], and hepatocyte nuclear factor-4α (HNF-4α) [61]. BAs can activate the above NRs, participate in a variety of intestinal signaling pathways, and then regulate the intestinal function.…”

Nuclear receptors (NRs) are ligand-dependent transcription factors that regulate the transcription of target genes. Bile acids (BAs) can be used as effector molecules to regulate physiological processes in the gut, and NRs are important receptors for bile acid signaling. Relevant studies have shown that NRs are closely related to the occurrence of Crohn’s disease (CD). Although the mechanism of NRs in CD has not been clarified completely, growing evidence shows that NRs play an important role in regulating intestinal immunity, mucosal barrier, and intestinal flora. NRs can participate in the progress of CD by mediating inflammation, immunity, and autophagy. As the important parts of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy, acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of CD curative mechanism can get a lot of research support. At the same time, acupuncture and moxibustion can regulate the changes of related NRs. Therefore, to explore whether acupuncture can regulate BA circulation and NRs expression and then participate in the disease progression of CD, a new theoretical basis for acupuncture treatment of CD is provided.
