Unexpected evolutionary proximity of eukaryotic and cyanobacterial enzymes responsible for biosynthesis of retinoic acid and its oxidation [PDF]
Biosynthesis of retinoic acid from retinaldehyde (retinal) is catalysed by an aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) and its oxidation by cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs).

Isotretinoin is a retinoid which is derived from Vitamin A. It is indicated for severe cystic acne treatment, but it has been classified as teratogenic. A wide spectrum of birth defects including craniofacial, heart, and nervous system malformations have been described with prenatal exposure to this drug.

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 ...

Proliferation versus Differentiation: Redefining Retinoic Acids Role. [PDF]
Retinoic acid is commonly used in culture to differentiate stem cells into neurons and has established neural differentiation functions in vivo in developing and adult organisms. In this issue of Stem Cell Reports, Mishra et al.

CRABP proteins – relatives or homonyms?
Retinoic acid being the most active metabolite of vitamin A (retinol) regulates the wide spectrum of physiological processes including embryonic development, development of immune response, hematopoiesis, glucose and lipids metabolism, etc. Retinoic acid

Fee Arrangements and Fee Shifting: Lessons From the Experience in Ontario [PDF]
About one-third of oestrogen receptor alpha-positive breast cancer patients treated with tamoxifen relapse. Here we identify the nuclear receptor retinoic acid receptor alpha as a marker of tamoxifen resistance. Using quantitative mass spectrometry-based

Retinoic acid is a potential dorsalising signal in the late embryonic chick hindbrain [PDF]
Background: Human retinoic acid teratogenesis results in malformations of dorsally derived hindbrain structures such as the cerebellum, noradrenergic hindbrain neurons and the precerebellar system.

Human plasma was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography for the presence of retinoic acid and 4-oxoretinoic acid isomers. Peaks that coeluted with the reference compounds all-trans-retinoic acid, 13-cis-retinoic acid, and 13-cis-4-oxoretinoic

Effects of diet and strain on mouse serum and tissue retinoid concentrations. [PDF]
The relationship between dietary vitamin A and all-trans-retinoic acid levels in serum and tissues had not been quantified. We determined the impact of dietary vitamin A on retinoid levels in serum, liver, kidney, testis, and epididymal white adipose of ...
