Abstract
Farsenoid X receptor (FXR) is an attractive drug target due to its role in the regulation of cholesterol and bile acid levels. Hologram quantitative structure-activity relationships (HQSAR) were conducted on a series of FXR activators, and the final model obtained was used to predict the potency of 10 test set compounds. The predicted values were in good agreement with the experimental results.
