چکیده

The in vitro metabolism of all-trans-[11,12-3h]retinoic acid to several more polar compounds has been demonstrated in a hamster tracheal organ culture system. The production of these metabolites is dependent on the presence of tissue. The physiological significance of these compounds is shown by the cochromatography of several of the in vitro formed metabolites synthesized from [carboxy-14C]retinoic acid with metabolites isolated from the intestine and urine of hamsters previously injected with 0.1 to 1.5 microgram of [3H]retinoic acid. One of the metabolites shows about one-tenth the biological activity of all-trans-retinoic acid when tested in a hamster tracheal organ culture assay. This biologically active metabolite is converted by the hamster trachea in vitro to a biologically inactive metabolite.

Retinoid-dependent induction of the in vivo and in vitro metabolism of retinoic acid in tissues of the vitamin A-deficient hamster.

The metabolism of C3H]retinoic acid, both in uiuo and in vitro in a 10,000 X g supernatant preparation of small intestinal mucosa and liver of vitamin A-deficient hamsters, has been shown to be dependent upon pretreatment of the hamsters with retinoic acid. A proportional increase in both the in uiuo and the in vitro metabolism in the intestine and liv’er was found with inducing levels of retin...

  Background and Objectives: Retinoic acid has a major role in a variety of biological processes including growth and differentiation. One of these effects is epithelialization seen in blastema tissue exposed to different concentration of retinoic acid, due to its embryo-like cells. The main objective of this research was to investigate an experimental studies of employed different concentratio...

The effect of bilateral intrahippocampal injection of all–trans retinoic acid on spatial learning in adult male rats.

Introduction: Previous studies have shown that vitamin A and its derivatives such as retinoid and all-trans retinoic acid have a crucial role in memory, learning and synaptic plasticity. The receptors of vitamin A are seen in different parts of the brain such as hippocampus, where vitamin A has an important role in learning. In this study, the effect of intrahippocampal (CA1) injection of al...

Metabolism of retinoids by embryonal carcinoma cells.

Several embryonal carcinoma (EC) cell lines were tested in culture for their ability to metabolize all-trans-[3H]retinol, all-trans-[3H]retinyl acetate, and all-trans-[3H]retinoic acid. There was little, if any, metabolism of all-trans-retinol to more polar compounds; we failed to detect conversion to acidic retinoids by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography and derivatization. W...

Gelatin Microspheres for the Controlled Release of All-trans-Retinoic Acid Topical Formulation and Drug Delivery Evaluation

A topical o/w cream containing tretinoin microspheres was prepared. Gelatin microspheres of tretinoin were prepared using coacervation method. These microspheres contained about 50% w/w tretinoin. The particle size range of microspheres was between 90-150 m m. In vitro drug release from microspheres and a cream formulation was studied. It was shown that drug release from microspheres followed H...
