The Biological Effects of Novel Synthetic Retinoids [PDF]

, 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

Treatment with KCL‐286, a first‐in‐class retinoic acid receptor‐β (RARβ) agonist, ameliorates neuronal DNA damage and inflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Repair of neuronal DNA damage in Alzheimer's disease by KCL‐286. (A) Amyloid‐β oligomers and plaques impair neuronal DNA repair pathways, leading to DNA double‐strand breaks and glial activation. (B) KCL‐286 activates RARβ/RXR signalling via retinoic acid response elements (RAREs), associated with increased BRCA1 expression, enhanced DNA repair and ...

RIG-I is required for the inhibition of measles virus by retinoids. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Vitamin A can significantly decrease measles-associated morbidity and mortality. Vitamin A can inhibit the replication of measles virus (MeV) in vitro through an RARα- and type I interferon (IFN)-dependent mechanism.

Facial Cosmetic Therapy Use Among Patients With Systemic Sclerosis: An Australian Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is associated with numerous facial manifestations for which patients may engage in cosmetic therapies. It is unclear how patients with SSc use these therapies. This study sought to characterize patient engagement and experiences with cosmetic therapies for SSc‐related and non‐SSc–related facial changes.

Retinoids – A Perspective To Teratogenic Effects

Journal of Dentistry Indonesia, 2015
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

A Rare De Novo Missense Mutation in IFT122 Confers a Genetic Susceptibility Factor of Idiopathic Pediatric Uveitis Via Trio‐based Whole‐Exome Sequencing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rare de novo IFT122‐A773E variant is identified in idiopathic pediatric uveitis and shown to exacerbate retinal inflammation and barrier dysfunction. Mechanistically, the variant enhances IFT43 interaction, elevates calcium signaling, and activates the MEK/ERK/FRA1 axis, revealing a previously unrecognized cilia‐associated pathway that may increase ...

Therapeutic applications of retinoids in ophthalmology

, 1997
Vitamin A was used to treat night blindness by Egyptian physicians as early as 1500 BC. All compounds that exhibit pharmacological and physiological properties of the basic vitamin A alcohol moiety are nowadays referred to as retinoids.

Astrocyte‐Associated ABCA1/APOE Responses Accompany Hippocampal Lipid Remodeling and Ectopic Neuronal Accumulation During Epileptogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
During kainic acid‐induced epileptogenesis, astrocyte‐associated ATP‐binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) responses accompany ectopic neurons and exploratory lipid alterations. In separate cohorts, bexarotene pretreatment and treatment on days 14–21 are associated with fewer ectopic hilar neurons and lower chronic seizure

Acinar‐Derived Organoids Reveal Stage‐Specific Control of Acinar Plasticity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An acinar‐derived organoid system maintains adult pancreatic acinar identity ex vivo, converts it along an ordered acinar‐to‐ductal‐like trajectory, and then partially restores it. Each transition carries its own signal requirement, with EGF/EGFR initiating conversion and a staged glucocorticoid–IGF1R switch driving redifferentiation.
