Disturbed retinoid metabolism upon loss of rlbp1a impairs cone function and leads to subretinal lipid deposits and photoreceptor degeneration in the zebrafish retina

open access: yeseLife, 2021
The RLBP1 gene encodes the 36 kDa cellular retinaldehyde-binding protein, CRALBP, a soluble retinoid carrier, in the visual cycle of the eyes. Mutations in RLBP1 are associated with recessively inherited clinical phenotypes, including Bothnia dystrophy ...

Epigenetic Silencing of Cellular Retinol-Binding Proteins in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2005
Aberrant retinoid signaling in human cancers is extending from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Recently, we have demonstrated frequent epigenetic inactivation of a retinoic acid receptor (RAR), RARβ2, in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Distinct Molten‐Globule Conformations in an Interacting Protein Domain Resolved by 19F NMR of Fluoroproline Residues

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Modifying the conformational ensemble of “molten‐globule” protein by the site‐specific incorporation of stereoisomeric 4‐fluoroproline residues modulated its binding affinity and aggregation behavior. 19F NMR spectroscopy enabled the detection of key interactions responsible for structural and dynamic changes. ABSTRACT Recently, the application of deep

Effect of Am-80, A Novel Retinoid Derivative, On Contact Hypersensitivity Caused by Repeated Applications of Hapten in Mice

open access: yesAllergology International, 2000
Some retinoids show an anti-inflammatory action through regulation of transcription of various genes. In the present study, the inhibitory effect of 4-((5,6,7,8- tetrahydro-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-2-naphthyl) carbamoyl) benzoic acid (Am-80), a synthetic ...

Inhibition of Rho GTPases in Invertebrate Growth Cones Induces a Switch in Responsiveness to Retinoic Acid

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
During development, growth cones are essential for axon pathfinding by sensing numerous guidance cues in their environment. Retinoic acid, the metabolite of vitamin A, is important for neurite outgrowth during vertebrate development, but may also play a ...

Treatment with KCL‐286, a first‐in‐class retinoic acid receptor‐β (RARβ) agonist, ameliorates neuronal DNA damage and inflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Repair of neuronal DNA damage in Alzheimer's disease by KCL‐286. (A) Amyloid‐β oligomers and plaques impair neuronal DNA repair pathways, leading to DNA double‐strand breaks and glial activation. (B) KCL‐286 activates RARβ/RXR signalling via retinoic acid response elements (RAREs), associated with increased BRCA1 expression, enhanced DNA repair and ...

Trifarotene: A Current Review and Perspectives in Dermatology

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Retinoids have numerous applications in inflammatory, dyskeratotic, and oncohematology diseases. Retinoids have now reached the fourth generation, progressively reducing toxicity whilst increasing their efficacy.
