Retinoid isomerase inhibitors impair but do not block mammalian cone photoreceptor function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Visual function in vertebrates critically depends on the continuous regeneration of visual pigments in rod and cone photoreceptors. RPE65 is a well-established retinoid isomerase in the pigment epithelium that regenerates rhodopsin during the rod visual ...

Unexpected evolutionary proximity of eukaryotic and cyanobacterial enzymes responsible for biosynthesis of retinoic acid and its oxidation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Biosynthesis of retinoic acid from retinaldehyde (retinal) is catalysed by an aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) and its oxidation by cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs).

Mineralized Cryogel/Hydrogel Constructs to Recapitulate Early Breast Cancer Bone Metastasis In Vitro

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A new biphasic in vitro cryogel/hydrogel model of early breast cancer bone metastasis provides precise control over microenvironmental cues and microscopic access to the spatiotemporal cancer cell distribution. Deposited bone‐like mineral is observed to strongly impede the effects of biomolecular signals, as evidenced by both colonization profiles and ...

Biochemical properties, tissue expression, and gene structure of a short chain dehydrogenase/reductase able to catalyze cis-retinol oxidation

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1999
We have identified a retinol dehydrogenase (cRDH) that catalyzes the oxidation of 9-cis- but not all-trans-retinol and proposed that this enzyme plays an important role in synthesis of the transcriptionally active retinoid, 9-cis-retinoic acid.

Effect of Hyperoxia on Retinoid Metabolism and Retinoid Receptor Expression in the Lungs of Newborn Mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Preterm newborns that receive oxygen therapy often develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), which is abnormal lung development characterized by impaired alveologenesis.

Studies on the mechanism of retinoid-induced pattern duplications in the early chick limb bud: temporal and spatial aspects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
All-trans-retinoic acid causes striking digit pattern changes when it is continuously released from a bead implanted in the anterior margin of an early chick wing bud.

Modulation of Network Plasticity Opens Novel Therapeutic Possibilities in Cancer, Diabetes, and Neurodegeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Plasticity changes of molecular networks form a cellular learning process. Signaling network plasticity promotes cancer, metastasis, and drug resistance development. 55 plasticity‐related cancer drug targets are listed (20 having already approved drugs, 9 investigational drugs, and 26 being drug target candidates).

Effects of systemic administration of the retinoid Isotretinoin on bone tissue: A narrative literature review

open access: yesAIMS Bioengineering
Isotretinoin is an oral medication commonly utilized to treat severe acne. It belongs to the class of retinoids and is a synthetic form of vitamin A. Possible changes in bone tissue associated with the systemic administration of Isotretinoin for long ...

Synthetic Retinoid Kills Drug‐Resistant Cancer Stem Cells via Inducing RARγ‐Translocation‐Mediated Tension Reduction and Chromatin Decondensation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
A recently developed synthetic retinoid abrogates proliferation and induces apoptosis of drug‐resistant malignant‐cancer‐stem‐cell‐like cells. However, the underlying mechanisms of how the synthetic retinoid induces cancer‐stem‐cell‐like cell tumor ...
