Lysophosphatidic acid is a potential mediator of cholestatic pruritusAndreas E Kremer

Serum autotaxin is increased in pruritus of cholestasis, but not of other origin, and responds to therapeutic interventionsAndreas E Kremer
Tytgat Institute for Liver and Intestinal Research, Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Hepatology 56:1391-400. 2012..The beneficial antipruritic action of RMP may be explained, at least partly, by the PXR-dependent transcriptional inhibition of ATX expression. Thus, ATX likely represents a novel therapeutic target for pruritus of cholestasis...
