Regulatory mechanisms of reproduction in locusts and grasshoppers

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Regulatory networks composed of numerous coding and noncoding genes play crucial roles in the reproduction of locusts and grasshoppers. This review integrates mechanistic advances in reproductive regulation, highlighting environmentally adaptive pathways and providing prospective targets for eco‐friendly pesticides.

Epigenetic Silencing of Cellular Retinol-Binding Proteins in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2005
Aberrant retinoid signaling in human cancers is extending from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Recently, we have demonstrated frequent epigenetic inactivation of a retinoic acid receptor (RAR), RARβ2, in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Decreased Production of Tissue Plasminogen Activator in Endothelial Cells From Nasal Polyps

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Previous studies have demonstrated that chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is characterized by excessive fibrin deposition which is related to impaired production of tissue plasminogen activator(t‐PA) by epithelial cells.

New ligands of the Cellular Retinoic Acid-Binding Protein 2 (CRABP2) suggest a role for this protein in chromatin remodeling

Revista de Ciências Farmacêuticas Básica e Aplicada, 2014
Retinoic acid (RA) regulates the transcription of a series of genes involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis by binding to the RA Receptor (RAR) and Retinoid X Receptor (RXR) heterodimers. The cellular retinoic acid-binding protein 2

Expression of retinoid receptors during rabbit lung development

Animal, 2007
Rabbit lung is often used to study the pathophysiology of some congenital anomalies affecting the lung because its development is very comparable with that of human.

Ligand-dependent Heterodimerization of Thyroid Hormone Receptor and Retinoid X Receptor [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
The thyroid hormone receptors (TR) bind to cis-acting DNA elements as heterodimers with the retinoid X receptors (RXR). These heterodimers display distinct specificities in mediating the hormonal response to target gene transcription. We characterized the interaction between TRalpha1 and RXRalpha via their ligand binding domains (LBDs) and the effect ...

Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

Thyroid hormone receptor variant alpha2. Role of the ninth heptad in dna binding, heterodimerization with retinoid X receptors, and dominant negative activity.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
Thyroid hormone receptors bind DNA with highest affinity as heterodimers with retinoid X receptors, and such heterodimers generally are thought to be the biological mediators of thyroid hormone action. An alternative splice product of the thyroid hormone

Regulation of PHOX2B gene expression by the long non‐coding natural antisense RNA PHOX2B‐AS1

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
PHOX2B is a transcription factor essential for autonomic nervous system development. We identify and characterize PHOX2B‐AS1, a human long non‐coding antisense transcript at the PHOX2B locus, along with its murine counterpart. Our findings reveal bidirectional transcription and reciprocal regulation: PHOX2B activates PHOX2B‐AS1, whereas PHOX2B‐AS1 ...

Differentiating solar lentigines from post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation with hyperspectral imaging: A pilot study

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
This preliminary study attempted to characterize solar lentigines and post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) observed on Japanese women. Colorimetric features and chromophore concentrations were measured using hyperspectral imaging for each hyperpigmentation type.
