Retinoid Metabolism in Endometriosis

open access: yesJournal of Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Disorders, 2017
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease in which progesterone resistance and inflammation have been found to be major mechanisms responsible for its development and progression. When compared to eutopic endometrium, key molecules have been found to be differentially expressed, which contribute to these mechanisms.

Interactions of retinoid binding proteins and enzymes in retinoid metabolism

Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 1999
Naturally occurring retinoids (vitamin A or retinol and its active metabolites) are vital for vision, controlling the differentiation program of epithelial cells in the digestive tract and respiratory system, skin, bone, the nervous system, the immune system, and for hematopoiesis.

Retinoid metabolism during development of liver cirrhosis

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2005
The changes in retinoid metabolism have been documented in liver cirrhosis. However, the dynamic alterations in levels of this vitamin between circulation and liver during development of the liver cirrhosis are not well understood. The aim of this study was to measure retinoids in the liver and circulation in parallel, during and after development of ...

Probiotic modulation of perfluorobutanesulfonate toxicity in zebrafish: Disturbances in retinoid metabolism and visual physiology

open access: yesChemosphere, 2020
Perfluorobutanesulfonate (PFBS), an aquatic pollutant of emerging concern, is found to disturb gut microbiota, retinoid metabolism and visual signaling in teleosts, while probiotic supplementation can shape gut microbial community to improve retinoid ...

Overview of retinoid metabolism and function

Journal of Neurobiology, 2006
AbstractRetinoids (vitamin A) are crucial for most forms of life. In chordates, they have important roles in the developing nervous system and notochord and many other embryonic structures, as well as in maintenance of epithelial surfaces, immune competence, and reproduction.

Overview of Retinoid Metabolism

The Journal of Nutrition, 1993
Substantial and exciting progress has been made in understanding the cytoplasmic metabolism and the nuclear functions of vitamin A. Keys to this understanding have come from studies of the plasma and cytoplasmic proteins that bind retinol and retinoic acid, thereby regulating retinoid concentration and specifying the enzymatic reactions through which ...

Retinoids and retinoid-metabolic gene expression in mouse adipose tissues

Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 2011
Vitamin A and its analogs (retinoids) regulate adipocyte differentiation. Recent investigations have demonstrated a relationship among retinoids, retinoid-binding-protein 4 (RBP4) synthesized in adipose tissues, and insulin-resistance status. In this study, we measured retinoid levels and analyzed the expression of retinoid homeostatic genes ...

Retinoid metabolism and its effects on the vasculature

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2012
Retinoids, the metabolically-active structural derivatives of vitamin A, are critical signaling molecules in many fundamental biological processes including cell survival, proliferation and differentiation. Emerging evidence, both clinical and molecular, implicates retinoids in atherosclerosis and other vasculoproliferative disorders such as restenosis.
