The anti-cancer effect of retinoic acid signaling in CRC occurs via decreased growth of ALDH+ colon cancer stem cells and increased differentiation of stem cells [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Tumorigenesis is driven by stem cell (SC) overpopulation. BecauseALDH is both a marker for SCs in many tissues and a key enzyme in retinoid acid (RA)signaling, we studied RA signaling in normal and malignant colonic SCs.Hypothesis: RA ...

Adaptive evolution of the Retinoid X receptor in vertebrates

Genomics, 2012
Retinoid X receptors (RXR) are transcription factors with important roles in development, reproduction, homeostasis, and cell differentiation. Different types of vertebrate RXRs (α (RXRA), ß (RXRB) and γ (RXRG)) have arisen from multiple duplication events.

The Crucial Involvement of Retinoid X Receptors in DDE Neurotoxicity [PDF]

Neurotoxicity Research, 2015
Dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE) is a primary environmental and metabolic degradation product of the pesticide dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT). It is one of the most toxic compounds belonging to organochlorines. DDE has never been commercially produced; however, the parent pesticide DDT is still used in some developing countries for disease-

Metabolomic and lipidomic signatures of Helicobacter pylori infection: Unveiling biochemical pathways associated with neurodegeneration

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Our study employed an integrated lipidomics and metabolomics approach to elucidate Helicobacter pylori‐driven metabolic perturbations along the gut–brain axis. H. pylori infection was established in gastric epithelial (AGS) cells, and the resulting conditioned media (secretome) was collected and exposed to neuronal (IMR‐32) cells.

Comprehensive study of nuclear receptor DNA binding provides a revised framework for understanding receptor specificity

Nature Communications, 2019
The type II nuclear receptors (NRs) and the retinoid X receptor (RXR) form heterodimeric transcription factors to regulate development, metabolism, and inflammation.

N6‐Methyladenosine (m6A) in Liver Disease: Pathogenic Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence highlights the critical role of epigenetic modifications, particularly N6‐methyladenosine (m6A), in liver disease. As the most abundant RNA modification in eukaryotic cells, m6A is dynamically regulated by multicomponent m6A methyltransferases (e.g., METTL3 and METTL14), demethylases (FTO and ALKBH5), and m6A‐binding ...

Modulation of nongenomic activation of PI3K signalling by tetramerization of N-terminally-cleaved RXRα

Nature Communications, 2017
The transcription factor retinoid X receptor-alpha (RXRα) can also form homotetramers. Here the authors show that the anti-cancer agent K-80003 selectively inhibits the nongenomic action of N-terminally-cleaved RXRα in tumour cells by stabilizing its ...

A retinoid X receptor partial agonist attenuates pulmonary emphysema and airway inflammation

Respiratory Research, 2019
Background Retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily that mediate signalling by 9-cis retinoic acid, a vitamin A derivative.

Retinoid X Receptor α Regulates DHA-Dependent Spinogenesis and Functional Synapse Formation In Vivo

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Coordinated intracellular and extracellular signaling is critical to synapse development and functional neural circuit wiring. Here, we report that unesterified docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) regulates functional synapse formation in vivo via ...
