Transcriptional regulation of flotillins by the extracellularly regulated kinases and retinoid X receptor complexes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Flotillin-1 and flotillin-2 are important regulators of signal transduction pathways such as growth factor signaling. Flotillin expression is increased under pathological conditions such as neurodegenerative disorders and cancer. Despite their importance

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 ...

Low Sunscreen Awareness and Misconceptions in Skin of Colour With Acne‐Related Post‐Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation: A Cross‐Sectional Study Highlighting the Need for Targeted Education

open access: yesAustralasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is a frequent sequela of acne in patients with skin of colour (SOC). While sunscreen is widely recommended for PIH prevention, little is known about real‐world sunscreen practices in this group. This study aimed to evaluate sunscreen use, barriers and factors influencing adherence

Integrated Clinical Trial and Molecular Profiling Reveals Immune Drivers of Chronic Hand Eczema

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
This study performed an unbiased molecular profiling of CHE patients across diverse etiologies to identify shared pathogenic drivers and evaluate the impact of IL‐4Rα blockade via dupilumab over 16 weeks. CHE shows a mixed immune signature involving type 1, 2, and 3 pathways with features of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.

Retinoid X receptor activation is essential for docosahexaenoic acid protection of retina photoreceptors

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2013
We have established that docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), the major polyunsaturated fatty acid in the retina, promotes survival of rat retina photoreceptors during early development in vitro and upon oxidative stress by activating the ERK/MAPK signaling ...

Appropriately differentiated ARPE-19 cells regain phenotype and gene expression profiles similar to those of native RPE cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
PurposeThe RPE cell line ARPE-19 provides a dependable and widely used alternative to native RPE. However, replication of the native RPE phenotype becomes more difficult because these cells lose their specialized phenotype after multiple passages ...

The T-cell oncogenic protein HOX11 activates Aldh1 expression in NIH 3T3 cells but represses its expression in mouse spleen development [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Hox11 is a homeobox gene essential for spleen formation in mice, since atrophy of the anlage of a developing spleen occurs in early embryonic development in Hox11 null mice.

Identification and functional validation of a novel disease‐causing variant in the noncoding region of NYX

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders, with ~30% of cases remaining genetically unsolved. Complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB) is a subtype of IRD, usually associated with reduced visual acuity, nystagmus and high myopia.

Retinoic Acid Signalling Regulates Zebrafish Tooth Germ Repair Following Injury

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Retinoic acid signalling may regulate the repair processes in a tooth germ injury model using Tg(scpp5:Dendra2‐NTR) zebrafish and the nitroreductase (NTR)/metronidazole (MTZ) system. ABSTRACT Although the role of retinoic acid (RA) signalling in odontogenesis is well established, its involvement in the repair of injured tooth germs remains unclear.

S3 guideline diagnostics and therapy in alopecia areata – Part 2: Therapy, psychosocial and cosmetic support

open access: yesJDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary This second part of the S3 guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of alopecia areata (AA), presents key recommendations on topical and systemic therapy, quality of life and support services. The first part of the guideline, published separately, covers the definition and content of epidemiology and diagnosis as well as comorbidities, risk and
