Cyp26b1 within the growth plate regulates bone growth in juvenile mice.
Retinoic acid (RA) is an active metabolite of vitamin A and plays important roles in embryonic development. CYP26 enzymes degrade RA and have specific expression patterns that produce a RA gradient, which regulates the patterning of various structures in the embryo. However, it has not been addressed whether a RA gradient also exists and functions in organs after birth. We found localized RA ac...
متن کاملBortezomib Is Cytotoxic to the Human Growth Plate and Permanently Impairs Bone Growth in Young Mice
Bortezomib, a novel proteasome inhibitor approved for the treatment of cancer in adults, has recently been introduced in pediatric clinical trials. Any tissue-specific side effects on bone development have to our knowledge not yet been explored. To address this, we experimentally studied the effects of bortezomib in vivo in young mice and in vitro in organ cultures of rat metatarsal bones and h...
متن کاملThe pathophysiology of the growth plate in juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
Children with chronic inflammatory diseases, such as juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), suffer from a variety of growth disorders. These range from general growth retardation to local acceleration of growth in the affected limb. These disorders are associated with the increased production of proinflammatory cytokines, which may influence growth through a local effect in the growth plates of l...
متن کاملThe bone morphogenetic protein roof plate chemorepellent regulates the rate of commissural axonal growth.
Commissural spinal axons extend away from the roof plate (RP) in response to a chemorepellent mediated by the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). Previous studies have focused on the ability of commissural axons to translate a spatial gradient of BMPs into directional information in vitro. However, a notable feature of this system in vivo is that the gradient of BMPs is thought to act from behi...
متن کاملGrowth and bone age of juvenile diabetics.
Evans, N., Robinson, V. P., and Lister, J. (1972). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 47, 589. Growth and bone age of juvenile diabetics. The growth of a group of juvenile diabetics on restricted carbohydrate diets has been studied using standardized techniques. Most patients were distributed between the 10th and 90th centiles for height, weight, bone age, and subscapular skinfold thickness. The...
