Characterization of the locust retinoid X receptors

open access: yes, 2007
The retinoid X receptor (RXR) participates in a multitude of nuclear receptor signaling pathways and is induced by its highly sought-after cognate ligand, 9-cis-retinoic acid (9-cis-RA). In flies and moths, molting is mediated by the ecdysone receptor that consists of a heterodimer comprising the ecdysone receptor monomer (EcR) and the invertebrate RXR

Differential expression of retinoid receptors in the adult mouse central nervous system

open access: yesNeuroscience, 1999
International audienceThe immunocytochemical distribution of retinoid receptors has been analysed in the mouse adult central nervous system. All retinoic acid receptors (alpha, beta and gamma) and retinoid X receptors (alpha, beta and gamma) were ...

Retinoid receptors in ovarian cancer: expression and prognosis [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Oncology, 2005
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is frequently lethal despite aggressive multimodal therapy, and new therapies are therefore needed. Retinoids are potential candidate drugs: they prevent the development of ovarian carcinoma and enhance the efficacy of ...

Active repression by unliganded retinoid receptors in development [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2003
The retinoid receptors have major roles throughout development, even in the absence of ligand. Here, we summarize an emerging theme whereby gene repression, mediated by unliganded retinoid receptors, can dictate cell fate.

Retinoid X receptors and retinoid response in neuroblastoma cells

Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2002
AbstractRetinoic acid (RA) modulates differentiation and apoptosis of neural cells via RA receptors (RARs) and retinoid X receptors (RXRs). Neuroblastoma cells are potentially useful models for elucidating the molecular mechanisms of RA in neural cells, and responses to different isomers of RA have been interpreted in terms of differential homo‐ and ...

Immunolocalization of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors and retinoid x receptors in the adult rat CNS

open access: yesNeuroscience, 2004
Peroxisome proliferator-activated and retinoid X receptors (PPARs and RXRs) are transcription factors belonging to the steroid hormone receptor superfamily.

Retinoids Selective for Retinoid X Receptor Response Pathways

Science, 1992
Retinoids have a broad spectrum of biological activities and are useful therapeutic agents. Their physiological activities are mediated by two types of receptors, the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and the retinoid X receptors (RXRs). RARs, as well as several related receptors, require heterodimerization with RXRs for effective DNA binding
