A Role for All-Trans-Retinoic Acid in the Early Steps of Lymphatic Vasculature Development [PDF]
The molecular mechanisms that regulate the earliest steps of lymphatic vascular system development are unknown. To identify regulators of lymphatic competence and commitment, we used an in vitro vascular assay with mouse embryonic stem cell-derived ...

Research progress in retinoic acid in cognitive impairment disorders [PDF]
Retinoic acid (RA), as the principal active metabolite of vitamin A, plays a critical role in regulating neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and anti-inflammatory responses.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

A coordinated phosphorylation cascade initiated by MSK1 directs RAR alpha recruitment to target gene promoters [PDF]
The nuclear retinoic acid (RA) receptor alpha (RARα) is a transcriptional transregulator that controls the expression of specific gene subsets through binding at response elements and dynamic interactions with coregulators, which are coordinated by

Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Evaluation and comparison of natural and synthetic retinoids on model of neural development [PDF]
Vitamin A and its derivatives, collectively termed retinoids, are a group of natural and synthetic molecules that are structurally and/or functionally analogous.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

Additive Effects of Retinoic Acid (RA) and Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 (BMP-4) Apoptosis Signaling in Retinoblastoma Cell Lines. [PDF]
Retinoids have been shown to serve promising therapeutic agents for human cancers, e.g. the treatment of neuroblastoma. Synthetic retinoids, specific for particular retinoic acid (RA) receptors, are tested as new therapy strategies. In the present study,

Antagonism between retinoic acid receptors. [PDF]
In the developing mouse, retinoic acid receptors (RARs) beta and gamma 1 are expressed in characteristic spatiotemporal patterns which are correlated with different developmental fates of the respective tissues. Understanding the cues that regulate the expression of the various RARs may therefore provide insights into the process of tissue ...

Interaction between cellular retinoic acid-binding protein II and histone hypoacetylation in renal cell carcinoma [PDF]
Renal cell carcinoma is a rare but serious malignancy. Since a reduction in the level of retinoic acid receptor beta 2 (RARbeta2) expression in cancer cells due in part to histone hypoacetylation which is controlled by histone deacetylase (HD), the study
