Gut microbiota–derived short‐chain fatty acids regulate group 3 innate lymphoid cells in HCC
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Background and Aims Type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are essential for host defense against infection and tissue homeostasis. However, their role in the development of HCC has not been adequately confirmed. In this study, we investigated the immunomodulatory role of short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) derived from intestinal microbiota in ILC3

The quaternary architecture of RARβ–RXRα heterodimer facilitates domain–domain signal transmission
Nature Communications, 2017 Nuclear receptors (NR) are multidomain proteins, which makes their crystallization challenging. Here the authors present the crystal structure of the retinoic acid receptor β–retinoic X receptor α (RARβ–RXRα) heterodimer bound to DNA, ligands and ...

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022 Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) accounts for 10–15% of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemias (AML) and is typically caused by the fusion of promyelocytic leukemia with retinoic acid receptor α (RARA) gene.

Molecular Metabolism, 2022 Objective: The β-carotene oxygenase 1 (BCO1) is the enzyme responsible for the cleavage of β-carotene to retinal, the first intermediate in vitamin A formation. Preclinical studies suggest that BCO1 expression is required for dietary β-carotene to affect

A Retinoic Acid Receptor-Specific Element Controls the Retinoic Acid Receptor-β Promoter [PDF]
Molecular Endocrinology, 1990 The morphogen retinoic acid (RA) regulates gene transcription by interacting with specific nuclear receptors that recognize DNA sequences near responsive promoters. While much has recently been learned about the nuclear receptor proteins, little is known about the genes that are directly regulated by RA and their cis-acting response elements recognized

Expression of retinoid receptors during rabbit lung development
Animal, 2007 Rabbit lung is often used to study the pathophysiology of some congenital anomalies affecting the lung because its development is very comparable with that of human.
