Despite recent advances in the treatment of human colon cancer, the chemotherapeutic efficacy against colon cancer is still unsatisfactory. The complexity in colorectal cancer treatment leads to new research in combination therapy to overcome multidrug ...

Neuroblastoma is a pediatric tumour that accounts for more than 15% of cancer-related deaths in children. High-risk tumours are often difficult to treat, and patients’ survival chances are less than 50%. Retinoic acid treatment is part of the maintenance

Metabolism of all-trans-retinoic acid by cultured human epidermal keratinocytes
The uptake and metabolism of exogenous all-trans-retinoic acid by human epidermal keratinocytes in submerged culture was examined. Retinoic acid presented to keratinocytes in physiological form bound to albumin was rapidly taken up.

FGF and retinoic acid activity gradients control the timing of neural crest cell emigration in the trunk [PDF]
Coordination between functionally related adjacent tissues is essential during development. For example, formation of trunk neural crest cells (NCCs) is highly influenced by the adjacent mesoderm, but the molecular mechanism involved is not well ...

In this study, we examined effects of retinol deficiency and three retinoids, all-trans-retinoic acid, 13-cis-retinoic acid, and etretin, the aromatic derivative of retinoic acid on nuclear retinoic acid receptor isoforms alpha, beta, and gamma mRNA in ...

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 ...

Foxp3+ regulatory T (T reg) cells play a key role in controlling immune pathological re actions. Many develop their regulatory activity in the thymus, but there is also evidence for development of Foxp3+ T reg cells from naive precursors in the periphery.

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

Retinoic acid signaling pathways
Retinoic acid (RA), a metabolite of retinol (vitamin A), functions as a ligand for nuclear RA receptors (RARs) that regulate development of chordate animals. RA-RARs can activate or repress transcription of key developmental genes.
