Effects of Novel Retinoic Acid Compound, 9-cis-Retinoic Acid, on Proliferation, Differentiation, and Expression of Retinoic Acid Receptor-a
Retinoic acid modulates proliferation and differentiation of a wide variety of normal and leukemic cells through two distinct families of transcriptional factors: the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and the retinoid X receptors (RXRs). A stereoisomer of retinoic acid, 9-cis-retinoic acid, is a highaffinity ligand for RXR and binds efficiently to RAR. In contrast, all-trans-retinoic acid interact...
متن کاملRetinoic Acid Determines the Fate of Spermatogonia
In this review, we aim to examine the effect of extrinsic and intrinsic factors on spermatogenesis process taking into account a complex signaling pathway. Primarily, it is suggested that retinoic acid (RA) has a vital function in spermatogenesis process and it is considered to be essential for completion of spermatogonia into mature spermatozoa. In the present review, the key effects of retino...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of 9-cis-retinoic acid in the rhesus monkey.
9-cis-Retinoic acid is a naturally occurring biologically active retinoid capable of binding and transactivating both the retinoic acid receptors and the retinoid X receptors. A study was performed to characterize the pharmacokinetics 9-cis-retinoic acid following i.v. bolus administration in the nonhuman primate. Groups of three animals received i.v. bolus doses of 9-cis-retinoic acid of eithe...
متن کاملDirect channeling of retinoic acid between cellular retinoic acid-binding protein II and retinoic acid receptor sensitizes mammary carcinoma cells to retinoic acid-induced growth arrest.
Cellular retinoic acid-binding protein II (CRABP-II) is an intracellular lipid-binding protein that associates with retinoic acid with a subnanomolar affinity. We previously showed that CRABP-II enhances the transcriptional activity of the nuclear receptor with which it shares a common ligand, namely, the retinoic acid receptor (RAR), and we suggested that it may act by delivering retinoic acid...
متن کاملAllosteric Regulation in the Ligand Binding Domain of Retinoic Acid Receptorγ
Retinoic acid (RA) plays key roles in cell differentiation and growth arrest through nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs), which are ligand-dependent transcription factors. While the main trigger of RAR activation is the binding of RA, phosphorylation of the receptors has also emerged as an important regulatory signal. Phosphorylation of the RARγ N-terminal domain (NTD) is known to play a fun...
