The truncated form of retinoid X receptor-alpha is found in cancer. Here, the authors show that this mutant receptor promotes colorectal tumorigenesis by activation of NF-κB in myeloid cells, leading to subsequent IL-6-induced STAT3 activation in ...

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 ...

Orphan Receptor TR3 Attenuates the p300-Induced Acetylation of Retinoid X Receptor-α [PDF]
AbstractAcetylation modification regulates the functions of histone and nonhistone proteins, including transcriptional activity, protein interaction, and subcellular localization. Although many nuclear receptors have been shown to be modified by acetylation, whether retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are acetylated and how the acetylation is regulated remains

The Prognostic Impact of Retinoid X Receptor and Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha in Unifocal vs. Multifocal/Multicentric Breast Cancer [PDF]
The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value of the steroid hormone receptor expression, counting the retinoid X receptor (RXR) and thyroid hormone receptors (THRs), on the two different breast cancer (BC) entities: multifocal/multicentric versus unifocal.

Phosphorylated retinoid X receptor α loses its heterodimeric activity with retinoic acid receptor β [PDF]
A malfunction in retinoid X receptor (RXR) α due to phosphorylation is associated with the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the precise mechanisms by which phosphorylated RXRα loses its physiological function remain unclear. In the present study we examined whether phosphorylation of RXRα affects its dimeric activity.
