Retinoids – A Perspective To Teratogenic Effects
Since the role of retinoids in normal growth, reproduction, maintenance and differentiantion of epithelial tissue has been known, the therapeutic value of retinoids has been utilised in disorders resembling vitamin A (retinol) deficiency. Much effort has

The Origin of Teratogenic Retinoids in Cyanobacteria
Although information about the occurrence and distribution of retinoids in the environment is scarce, cyanobacterial water blooms have been identified as a significant source of these small molecules.

Either an excess or a deficiency of vitamin A and related compounds (retinoids) causes abnormal morphological development (teratogenesis). Potential retinoid sources come from dietary intake, nutritional supplements, and some therapeutic drugs. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of retinoid teratogenesis is important.

Retinoids, Apoptosis and Cancer
Retinoids are a class of natural and synthetic vitamin A analogs structurally related to all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA). Natural retinoids are involved in the physiology of vision and as morphogenic agents during embryonic development; they are also known to play a major role in regulating growth and differentiation of a wide variety of normal and ...

Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis
Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis. Abstract Background and Aims Nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor‐family pyrin domain‐containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has been shown to result in liver fibrosis.

Retinoids and Retinoid Receptors in Teratogenesis* [PDF]
AbstractThere is overwhelming evidence that vitamin A (retinol), presumably through its metabolite retinoic acid, participates in organogenesis at several stages and sites during normal development. Besides the important role of retinol and retinoic acid (RA) as micronutrients in growth and development, these retinoids and their synthetic analogs are ...
