Role of vitamin A/retinoic acid in regulation of embryonic and adult hematopoiesis [PDF]
Vitamin A is an essential micronutrient throughout life. Its physiologically active metabolite retinoic acid (RA), acting through nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs), is a potent regulator of patterning during embryonic development, as well as being ...

Functional characterization of all‐trans retinoic acid‐induced differentiation factor (ATRAID)
All‐trans retinoic acid‐induced differentiation (ATRAID) factor was first identified in HL60 cells. Several mRNA isoforms exist, but the respective proteins have not been fully characterized. In transfected cells expressing Myc‐Flag‐tagged ATRAID Isoform

TULP4, a novel E3 ligase gene, participates in neuronal migration as a candidate in schizophrenia
Mutations identified from four SCZ pedigrees resulted in decreased TULP4 expression. Tulp4 knockdown caused delayed neuron migration in embryonic mice, and impaired cognition and prepulse inhibition in adult mice. These phenotypes may be related to TULP4 through its involvement in the formation of a novel E3 ubiquitin ligases.

An assay based on negative ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry has been developed to quantify retinoic acid in plasma or serum. The lower limit of detection is 75 pg (240 fmol); normal values of retinoic acid can be determined on as little as 40 ...

Post-natal all-trans-retinoic acid biosynthesis [PDF]
Generation of the autacoid all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) from retinol (vitamin A) relies on a complex metabolon that includes retinol binding-proteins and enzymes from the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase and aldehyde dehydrogenase gene families. Serum retinol binding-protein delivers all-trans-retinol (vitamin A) from blood to cells through two ...
