The Effect of Retinoic Acid on Seminal Vesicle Epithelial Cell
Purpose: The seminal vesicles are androgen dependent exocrine glands producing protein-rich secretion. The retinoic acid has been implicated as a signaling molecule for the seminal vesicle development. In the present study, the effect of retinoic acid on seminal vesicle epithelial cell of neonatal mouse was investigated. Materials and Methods: Newborn male N-MRI mice were injected intraperiton...
متن کاملAll-Trans Retinoic Acid Increases Aquaporin 3 Expression in Human Vaginal Epithelial Cells
INTRODUCTION Water channel aquaporin 3 (AQP3) is an aquaglyceroporin that transports small neutral solutes and water. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), a member of the retinoid drug class, acts as a regulator in several biological processes. AIM To investigate the effect of ATRA on the expression of AQP3 in human vaginal epithelial cells. METHODS Human vaginal mucosal epithelial cells (CRL261...
متن کاملRetinoic Acid Affects Mitogenesis in Rat Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells
In different experimental models, retinoid has been shown to stimulate or suppress mitogenesis in cultured cells. The mechanisms underlying this seemingly paradoxical activity remain only partially understood. We have examined the ability of alltrans retinoic acid (ATRA), as well as a number of synthetic retinoids, either alone or in the presence of a mitogenic stimulus (i.e., endothelin), to r...
متن کاملRetinoic acid metabolism in cultured retinal pigment epithelial cells.
PURPOSE To examine the stability of retinoic acid administered to cultured bovine retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and to determine if RPE cells metabolize retinoic acid by a cytochrome P-450 mechanism. METHODS Retinoic acid metabolism was examined in cultured RPE cells and subcellular fractions quantitatively by a thin-layer chromatography procedure and qualitatively by normal and reve...
متن کاملPathogenic interactions between Helicobacter pylori adhesion protein HopQ and human cell surface adhesion molecules CEACAMs in gastric epithelial cells
Objective(s): The present paper aims to review the studies describing the interactions between HopQ and CEACAMs along with possible mechanisms responsible for pathogenicity of Helicobacter pylori.Materials and Methods: The literature was searched on “PubMed” using different key words including Helicobacter pylori, CEACAM and gastric.<br ...
