Retinoic acid is like a steroid hormone that plays a role in embryo formation, proliferation of spermatogonia cells, ephitelial cells differentiation and organogenesis. Retinoic acid can influences seminiferous tubule formation during embryonic testis development and also play a role in the regulation of ovarian function and female reproductive tract by suppressing the hormones FSH receptor exp...
Astroglial cells are essential components of the neurogenic niches within the central nervous system. Emerging evidence suggests that they are among the key regulators of postnatal neurogenesis. Although astrocytes have been demonstrated to possess the potential to instruct stem cells to adopt a neuronal fate, little is known about the nature of the glia-derived instructive signals. Here we pro...
Retinoic acid, a derivative of vitamin A, is an essential component of cell-cell signaling during vertebrate organogenesis. In early development, retinoic acid organizes the trunk by providing an instructive signal for posterior neuroectoderm and foregut endoderm and a permissive signal for trunk mesoderm differentiation. At later stages, retinoic acid contributes to the development of the eye ...
Hox genes play important roles in the specification of spatial identity during development of vertebrate embryos. Retinoic acid regulates the transcription of Hox genes in vertebrates. We identified an epidermal enhancer in the 5' flanking region of an ortholog of Hox1 (Ci-Hox1) in the ascidian Ciona intestinalis. This enhancer element drives the transcription of a lacZ reporter gene in the epi...
INTRODUCTION Retinoic acid is a regulator of gene expression which, by binding to its nuclear receptor, determines the degree of differentiation in multiple cancer cell types. On the basis of this capability it was introduced, e.g. in the therapy of neuroblastoma. In cells derived from neural crest, such as neuroblastoma cells, retinoic acid initiates differentiation into neurons. This substanc...
Retinoic acid modulates proliferation and differentiation of a wide variety of normal and leukemic cells through two distinct families of transcriptional factors: the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and the retinoid X receptors (RXRs). A stereoisomer of retinoic acid, 9-cis-retinoic acid, is a highaffinity ligand for RXR and binds efficiently to RAR. In contrast, all-trans-retinoic acid interact...
The predominant isomer of retinoic acid in the plasma of dairy cows during the periparturient period is 9,13-di-cis-retinoic acid. Because retinoic acids influence the activity of cells in a variety of tissues, including the immune system, the potential for this isomer to modulate the bovine immune system during the periparturient period must be considered. The present study examined the in vit...
Retinoids induce myeloblastic leukemia (HL-60) cells to differentiate into granulocytes, which subsequently die by apoptosis. Retinoid action is mediated through at least two classes of nuclear receptors: retinoic acid receptors, which bind both all-trans retinoic acid and 9-cis retinoic acid, and retinoid X receptors, which bind only 9-cis retinoic acid. Using receptor-selective synthetic reti...
NGF has anti-proliferative and anti-invasive effects in neuroendocrine tumors. In the present work we examined the effects of NGF and retinoic acid on cell proliferation and invasion in thyroid carcinoma cells. We found that NGF and retinoic acid do not affect cell proliferation on their own but in combination they produce a strong inhibition. We also found that retinoic acid regulates the matr...
