-retinoic acid in undifferentiated THP-1 cells
We have previously shown that acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase-1 (ACAT-1) protein content increases significantly during the human monocyte-macrophage differentiation process. To gain further insight, we used undifferentiated human monocytic THP-1 cells as a model system with which to examine whether ACAT-1 mRNA and protein content can be increased by treating cells with 1,25-dihydr...
متن کاملRetinoic acid
How is retinoic acid produced? In vertebrates, vitamin A, in the form of retinyl esters, is stored mainly in the liver as well as in the lungs, kidneys and bone marrow. Retinol, bound to the retinolbinding protein (RBP), enters the circulatory system in order to reach cells that require retinoic acid. The retinol–RBP complex enters the cells through the RBP receptor (STRA6). Within the cells, r...
متن کاملStructure of the LINGO-1-anti-LINGO-1 Li81 antibody complex provides insights into the biology of LINGO-1 and the mechanism of action of the antibody therapy.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune-inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) with prominent demyelination and axonal injury. While most MS therapies target the immunologic response, there is a large unmet need for treatments that can promote CNS repair. LINGO-1 (leucine-rich repeat and Ig-containing Nogo receptor interacting protein-1) is a membrane protein selectively expr...
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 کاملCohesin and condensin spring into action
Retinoic acid keeps Lingo-1 quiet R etinoic acid (RA) promotes axon regeneration by silencing a key inhibitory receptor, Puttagunta et al. report. Neuronal regrowth after injury is limited, in part, by inhibitory proteins released upon disruption of the surrounding myelin sheath. These proteins bind to the Nogo receptor complex on the neuronal plasma membrane, thereby activating the RhoA GTPase...
