Expression and Distribution Pattern of Retinoic Acid Receptors in the Nasal Mucosa [PDF]
Background and Objectives Retinoids are naturally occurring vitamin A derivatives that regulate cellular processes and metabolism. In particular, retinoids play a key role in cellular proliferation by binding to retinoic acid receptors (RAR)-alpha, beta,

Some subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) share morphologic, immunophenotypic, and clinical features of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), but lack a PML–RARA (promyelocytic leukemia–retinoic acid receptor alpha) fusion gene.

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a special subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 95% patients have PML-RARA fusion gene as a result of a reciprocal chromosomal translocation t(15;17)(q22; q21). The retinoic acid receptors (RARs) belong to nuclear

Thyroid hormone regulation of gene expression in primary cerebrocortical cells: role of thyroid hormone receptor subtypes and interactions with retinoic acid and glucocorticoids. [PDF]
The effects of thyroid hormone on brain development and function are largely mediated by the binding of 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) to its nuclear receptors (TR) to regulate positively or negatively gene expression.

Dual effects of 9-cis retinoic acid on ACTH-dependent hyperplastic adrenal tissues
Retinoids play a pivotal role in adrenal development and differentiation. Recent clinical trials revealed therapeutic potential of both all-trans and 9-cis retinoic acid in patients with cortisol excess due to a pituitary ACTH-secreting adenoma and ...

Retinoic Acid Receptors and Cancer [PDF]
Retinoids have been shown to inhibit the growth of many human tumor cells. Although the exact molecular mechanism of retinoid-mediated growth suppression remains known, the importance of the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and retinoid X receptors (RXRs) has been in established a number of tumor cell models.

Some forms of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) share typical morphological and immunophenotypic features of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) but are negative for promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor alpha (PML-RARA) fusion.

Activation of Retinoic Acid Receptors by Dihydroretinoids [PDF]
Vitamin A-derived metabolites act as ligands for nuclear receptors controlling the expression of a number of genes. Stereospecific saturation of the C(13)-C(14) double bond of all-trans-retinol by the enzyme, retinol saturase (RetSat), leads to the production of (R)-all-trans-13,14-dihydroretinol.

Acute Myelogenous Leukemia without Maturation with a Retinoic Alpha-Receptor Deletion: A Case Report
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by a t(15;17) which fuses the 17q retinoic acid alpha-receptor sequence to the 15q PML gene sequence.

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 ...
