ABSTRACT Despite all efforts, obesity remains a major health concern worldwide, with continuously increasing rates, affecting approx. 14% of the total world population, being as high as 43% in some countries. As obesity is related to numerous comorbidities, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and some types of cancer, the consequences ...

Retinoid activation of retinoic acid receptors but not of retinoid X receptors promotes cellular differentiation and replication of human cytomegalovirus in embryonal cells [PDF]
The susceptibility of human embryonal cell line NT-2/D1 to replicate human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) is dependent on retinoic acid (RA) stimulation. Physiological responses to retinoic acid involve two distinct subfamilies of nuclear receptors, the RA ...

Translating gut microbiome research into therapies for type 1 diabetes
Abstract Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is characterised by the loss of functional pancreatic β‐cells, for which lifelong insulin therapy remains the standard of care. Given that the gut microbiome can influence host health and that shifts in gut microbial profiles have been observed in T1D, growing interest has emerged in the role of the gut microbiome in T1D,

A coordinated phosphorylation cascade initiated by MSK1 directs RAR alpha recruitment to target gene promoters [PDF]
The nuclear retinoic acid (RA) receptor alpha (RARα) is a transcriptional transregulator that controls the expression of specific gene subsets through binding at response elements and dynamic interactions with coregulators, which are coordinated by

Retinoid receptors and therapeutic applications of RAR/RXR modulators
Retinoic acid receptors (RARs) are ligand-controlled transcription factors that function as heterodimers with retinoid X receptors (RXRs) to regulate cell growth, differentiation, survival and death.

Sex‐stratified analyses of the TCGA and CGGA cohorts have identified promoter‐proximal TACSTD2 CpG sites where methylation shows opposite survival associations in males and females, is independent of copy number, and correlates with TACSTD2 expression.

Proper myelin formation is crucial for normal neural circuit function, while myelin deficiency can lead to neural circuit dysfunction and cognitive decline, notably in Alzheimer's disease and other central nervous system demyelinating disorders. This review summarizes central myelin's structure and function, demyelination biomarkers and pathological ...

Elderly human donor microbiota disrupts intestinal barrier integrity and reshapes host metabolic and mucosal transcriptional profiles in human microbiota‐associated pigs. Integrated multi‐omics analyses identify coordinated microbial, metabolic, and host alterations associated with age‐related intestinal decline.

Preclinical PET Neuroimaging of [C]Bexarotene
Activation of retinoid X receptors (RXRs) has been proposed as a therapeutic mechanism for the treatment of neurodegeneration, including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. We previously reported radiolabeling of a Food and Drug Administration-approved

ABSTRACT Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by progressive tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis, particularly affecting the proximal tubule. Both proximal tubular epithelial cells and interstitial fibroblasts contribute to CKD progression through cell‐cycle arrest and phenotypic transitions.
