Established and Emerging Biomarkers to Characterize Persons at Risk for Obesity—Paving the Way for Targeted Clinical Intervention Trials—A Comprehensive Position Paper

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yes, 1995
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

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yes, 2008
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

open access: yes, 2012
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‐Modulated TACSTD2 Methylation and Hormone‐Receptor Axis Interactions in Glioblastoma: Insights Toward Mechanistic Understanding

open access: yesComputational and Systems Oncology, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2026.
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.

Myelin Impairment and Regeneration in the Central Nervous System: Molecular Mechanisms, Diseases, and Prospective Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
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 ...

Transplantation of Elderly Human Gut Microbiota Into Pigs Reprograms Intestinal Barrier Function, Plasma Metabolome, and Gut Mucosal Transcriptomic Landscape

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
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

open access: yesMolecular Imaging, 2016
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

An Acidic Tubulointerstitial Microenvironment Delays Cell‐Cycle Progression in Proximal Tubule Cells and Fibroblasts and Synergizes With Lactate to Drive Phenotypic Alterations

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 10, October 2026.
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.
