All-trans-retinoic acid prevents radiation- or bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis.
RATIONALE Although radiotherapy is effective in treating lung cancers, resultant pulmonary injury is the main obstacle. Pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by progressive worsening in pulmonary function leading to high incidence of death. Currently, however, there has been little progress in effective preventive and therapeutic strategies. OBJECTIVES Previously, we reported that all-trans-ret...
متن کاملAll Trans Retinoic Acid (ATRA) induced myositis.
A 5-year-old girl presented with fever, skin and mucosal bleeds, and pallor. Her hemoglobin was 3.6 g/dL, total white cell count 4.5×103/μL and platelet count 13×103/μL. Peripheral smear revealed 30% blasts, confirmed as APML on bone marrow examination. Cytogenetic analysis showed the typical translocation of t(15:17) with 77% of interphase cells expressing PML:RARA gene fusion. Child was start...
متن کاملAll-trans-retinoic acid: measurement
A quantitative determination of physiological levels of all-trans-retinoic acid (vitamin A acid) in human serum has been developed. A double-phase extraction of 3.5 ml of serum followed by a specific and sensitive high performance liquid chromatography procedure allowed measurement of levels down to 1 ng/ml. Serum concentrations in 37 fasting volunteers ranged from 2.7 to 4.2 ng/ml and fitted a...
متن کاملAll-trans-retinoic acid-induced rhabdomyolysis: a case report
All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) induced rhabdomyolysis in the induction treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a very rare complication. However, rhabdomyolysis-related acute renal failure increases the risk of high morbidity and mortality. Here we describe a case of rhabdomyolysis associated with ATRA during the induction therapy in an adult with APL. Clinical implications are discu...
متن کاملInhibition of periderm removal in all-trans retinoic acid-induced cleft palate in mice
Cleft palate is a common craniofacial birth defect. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of excess all-trans retinoic acid (atRA) on periderm removal and the disappearance of basal medial edge epithelial (MEE) cells during palatogenesis, particularly during the stage prior to contact. atRA (200 mg/kg) was administered to C57BL/6N mice at embryonic day (E) 12.0 by gavage. F...
