All-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 کاملMultifaceted suppression of aggressive behavior of thyroid carcinoma by all-trans retinoic acid induced re-differentiation.
Since all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) has shown promising results in differentiation therapy, the present study was designed to investigate the effects of ATRA on thyroid carcinoma and to evaluate the effectiveness of ATRA in redifferentiation induction of thyroid carcinoma. Therefore, we investigated cell growth rate, morphological and nuclear: cytoplasmic ratio, adherent-dependent growth, resp...
متن کاملAll-trans-retinoic acid and bleeding/thrombosis.
Hematology-Oncology Department Ospedali Riuniti Largo Barozzi, 1 24128 Bergamo (Italy) Tel. 39 035 269492, Fax 39 035 266659 E-Mail [email protected] All-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) inhibits cell growth and proliferation by inducing cyto-differentiation and/or apoptosis in several cell types. These effects have become a therapeutic objective in human cancers. In addition to these functions, ...
متن کاملAll Trans Retinoic Acid (ATRA) induced myositis.
A 5-year-old girl presented with fever, skin and mucosal bleeds, and pallor. Her hemoglobin was 3.6 g/dL, total white cell count 4.5×103/μL and platelet count 13×103/μL. Peripheral smear revealed 30% blasts, confirmed as APML on bone marrow examination. Cytogenetic analysis showed the typical translocation of t(15:17) with 77% of interphase cells expressing PML:RARA gene fusion. Child was start...
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...
