All-Trans Retinoic Acid Increases Aquaporin 3 Expression in Human Vaginal Epithelial Cells
INTRODUCTION Water channel aquaporin 3 (AQP3) is an aquaglyceroporin that transports small neutral solutes and water. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), a member of the retinoid drug class, acts as a regulator in several biological processes. AIM To investigate the effect of ATRA on the expression of AQP3 in human vaginal epithelial cells. METHODS Human vaginal mucosal epithelial cells (CRL261...
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 کاملEffect of retinoic acid on aquaporin 3 expression in keratinocytes.
To explore the possible mechanism of the third-generation retinoic acid drugs (isotretinoin, acitretin, adapalene) in inducing skin and mucosa dryness and rhagades; specifically, mechanism by which these drugs influence keratinocyte cell culture models in vitro (HaCaT) and aquaporin channel (AQP3) protein expression was investigated. Isotretinoin, acitretin, and adapalene were applied to human ...
متن کاملAll-Trans Retinoic Acid Modulates ORMDL3 Expression via Transcriptional Regulation
All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is an active metabolite of Vitamin A, it shows protective effects on asthma, including maintains airway epithelial integrity, inhibits asthma effector cells differentiation, modulates immune response, et al. However, the promoting effect of ATRA on Th2 response has restricted the clinical application of ATRA in asthma treatment. ORMDL3 is a candidate gene of child...
متن کاملRapid Publication All-trans Retinoic Acid Modulates the Retinoic Acid Receptor-a in Promyelocytic Cells
We have recently demonstrated that all-trans retinoic acid (RA), the active metabolite of vitamin A, is an efficient alternative to chemotherapy in the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (AML3). We have further shown that, in these AML3 cells, the gene of the retinoic acid receptor-a (RARa) is translocated from chromosome 17 to chromosome 15, and fused to a new gene, PLM. This results in...
