Vitamin A and regulation of gene expression
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 1998The biologically active form of vitamin A, retinoic acid, and its synthetic analogs exhibit potent anti-proliferative normalization of differentiation and anti-inflammatory activities, which appear to account for their therapeutic effects in hyperproliferative and inflammatory diseases, such as acne, psoriasis, photoaging and neoplasias.

Glucose regulation of gene expression
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 1998Regulation of gene expression by nutrients in mammals is an important mechanism allowing them to adapt to the nutritional environment. In-vivo and in-vitro experiments have demonstrated that the transcription of genes coding for lipogenic and glycolytic enzymes in liver and/or adipose tissue is upregulated by glucose.

Regulation of Gene Expression by Glucocorticoids
Annual Review of Physiology, 1989Steroid hormones mediate profound physiological and developmental effects in higher eukaryotes. By interacting with their intracellular receptors in target cells, steroid hormones provide mechanisms for cellular communication and alterations in phenotypic response to environmental and internal stimuli.

Our genetic machinery is regulated extensively and is the reason why each organ has cells that express a unique set of genes, even though all cells in our body have the same chromosomes. Regulation starts at the epigenetic level, controlling the unwinding of chromosomes from histones by methylation and acetylation.

Biotin — a regulator of gene expression
The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry, 2005The role of biotin as the prosthetic group of the four biotin-dependent carboxylases in higher organisms is well recognized. Based on the roles of these carboxylases in metabolism, the requirement of biotin for cell viability, growth and differentiation was established. Biotin seems to have a role in cell functions other than as the prosthetic group of

Gene Expression and Regulation
2002The unique feature of DNA is that it is duplicated at cell division, with one copy going to each daughter cell. The genomic information that makes us what we are is thus faithfully passed into each new cell. The process of DNA replication is coupled with DNA repair systems to make certain that errors in copying are corrected, or that the copy is ...

Gene Expression and Regulation
2014In this chapter we make use of all the material studied so far to construct a few (simple but informative) models for gene expression. As before, we are interested in obtaining useful information regarding both the dynamical and thermodynamical aspects of this phenomenon.
