Potential therapeutic roles of retinoids for prevention of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2019
All retinoids, which can be natural and synthetic, are chemically related to vitamin A. Both natural and synthetic retinoids use specific nuclear receptors such as retinoic acid receptors and retinoid X receptors to activate specific signaling pathways ...

Distinct Molten‐Globule Conformations in an Interacting Protein Domain Resolved by 19F NMR of Fluoroproline Residues

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Modifying the conformational ensemble of “molten‐globule” protein by the site‐specific incorporation of stereoisomeric 4‐fluoroproline residues modulated its binding affinity and aggregation behavior. 19F NMR spectroscopy enabled the detection of key interactions responsible for structural and dynamic changes. ABSTRACT Recently, the application of deep

The Role of the Enterohepatic Circulation of Bile Salts and Nuclear Hormone Receptors in the Regulation of Cholesterol Homeostasis: Bile Salts as Ligands for Nuclear Hormone Receptors

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2003
The coordinated effect of lipid activated nuclear hormone receptors; liver X receptor (LXR), bound by oxysterol ligands and farnesoid X receptor (FXR), bound by bile acid ligands, act as genetic transcription factors to cause feed-forward cholesterol ...

9-cis-13,14-Dihydroretinoic Acid Is an Endogenous Retinoid Acting as RXR Ligand in Mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
The retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are ligand-activated transcription factors which heterodimerize with a number of nuclear hormone receptors, thereby controlling a variety of (patho)-physiological processes. Although synthetic RXR ligands are developed for

Bexarotene signaling in human B and T lymphocytes induces gut-homing receptor expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
BackgroundRetinoic acid (RA) receptors (RARs) in human lymphocytes modulate the humoral and intestinal immune response by regulating target genes, including CD38, TGM2, and gut-homing markers.

Bovine cumulus-granulosa cells contain biologically active retinoid receptors that can respond to retinoic acid

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2003
Retinoids, a class of compounds that include retinol and its metabolite, retinoic acid, are absolutely essential for ovarian steroid production, oocyte maturation, and early embryogenesis.

The Biological Effects of Novel Synthetic Retinoids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Naturally occurring Retinoids are known to play a role in many developmental processes in the early embryo as well as being a potent tool for in vitro differentiation of stem cells. The exogenous application of these naturally occurring retinoids as well
