Regulation of Retinoic Acid Receptor
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR ) is a nuclear receptor family member that can form a heterodimeric complex with retinoid X receptor (RXR) and initiate transcription of target genes. In this study, we have examined the effects of the PPAR ligand ciglitazone and the RXR ligand SR11237 on growth and induction of retinoic acid receptor (RAR) expression in breast and lung cance...
متن کاملReceptor and Cellular Retinoic Acid Acid: Proapoptotic Genes Are Targets for Retinoic Acid Suppression of Mammary Carcinoma Growth by Retinoic
Retinoic acid (RA) displays pronounced anticarcinogenic activities in several types of cancer. Whereas the mechanisms that underlie this activity remain incompletely understood, tumor suppression by RA is believed to emanate primarily from its ability to regulate transcription of multiple target genes. Here, we investigated molecular events through which RA inhibits the growth of MCF-7 mammary ...
متن کاملPhysical interaction between retinoic acid receptor and Sp1: mechanism for induction of urokinase by retinoic acid.
Induction of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) by retinoic acid (RA) is the initial event preceding certain subsequent biological changes in vascular endothelial cells. We investigated the molecular mechanism by which RA stimulates the expression of uPA, which lacks a canonical RA receptor (RAR)-responsive element, in bovine and human aortic endothelial cells. Upon stimulation with RA, mRNA...
متن کاملRetinoic acid induces neuroblastoma cell death by inhibiting proteasomal degradation of retinoic acid receptor alpha.
To seek a novel therapeutic approach to neuroblastoma (NBL), we used three NBL cell lines (SK-N-DZ, NH12, and SK-N-SH) to examine the underlining molecular mechanisms of cellular reactions and sensitivity to all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA). SK-N-DZ cells expressed relatively high levels of retinoic acid receptor alpha (RAR-alpha) and underwent ATRA-induced cell death that was blocked by an RAR-a...
متن کاملActivation of retinoic acid receptor-dependent transcription by all-trans-retinoic acid metabolites and isomers.
We have shown that four metabolites of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) (4-oxo-, 4-OH-, 18-OH-, and 5,6-epoxy-RA) can induce maturation of NB4 promyelocytic leukemia cells (Idres, N., Benoit, G., Flexor, M. A., Lanotte, M., and Chabot, G. G. (2001) Cancer Res. 61, 700-705). To better understand the mechanism of action of ATRA metabolites and isomers, we assessed their binding to retinoic acid rec...
