The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of retinoic acid in experimental postinfarction myocardial remodeling. Wistar rats were subjected to myocardial infarction (MI) and treated with retinoic acid (RA), 0.3 mg/(kg x d) (MI-RA, n = 29), or fed a control diet (MI, n = 34). After 6 mo,
The aim of this study was to investigate whether exogenous retinoic acid (RA) can upregulate the mRNA and protein expression of growth-associated protein 43 (GAP-43), thereby promoting brain functional recovery in a rat distal middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model of ischemia. A total of 216
The present study investigates the neuroprotective effects of midkine (MK) and retinoic acid (RA) against ischemia in the CNS. Primary cortical neurons, derived from rat E15 embryos (DIV9), were treated with 9-cis-RA (9cRA), all-trans-RA (atRA) or vehicle. Using quantitative PCR, the level of MK
A 27-year-old woman visited Kanto Teishin Hospital complaining of fever and petechiae in September, 1992. Her fetus had suddenly died in the uterus two weeks before (in the sixth month of pregnancy). Total white blood cell (WBC) count was 3.2 x 10(3)/microliters with 80% promyelocytes. Bone marrow
A 71-year-old man visited our hospital complaining of fever and a bleeding tendency. The peripheral blood WBC count was 10,400/microliter with 90% promyelocytes. The bone marrow was hypercellular with 88% promyelocytes. Disseminated intravascular coagulation was recognized. The patient was diagnosed
Bleeding is a common complication during initial induction treatment for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Administration of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA), which is in routine use for APL in the past decade improves the bleeding tendency dramatically. Nevertheless, thrombotic events have still
The detection of left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) is crucial before ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) or sudden cardiac death. The aim of this study was to identify characteristic metabolite modifications in the LMCAD phenotype, using the metabolomics technique. Metabolic
All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) influences the outcomes of cerebral ischemic reperfusion (CIR) injury, but the mechanism remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of ATRA on loss of the blood brain barrier (BBB) following CIR and to explore the possible mechanisms. Transient
All-trans-retinoic acid (atRA) is the essential derivative of vitamin A and is of interest due to its various biological key functions. As shown in the recent literature, atRA also plays a role in the failing heart during myocardial infarction, the leading cause of death
We previously discovered that oral treatment with AC261066, a synthetic selective agonist for the retinoic acid β2-receptor, decreases oxidative stress in the liver, pancreas, and kidney of mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD). Since hyperlipidemic states are causally associated with myocardial ischemia
OBJECTIVE
Retinoic acid receptor-related orphan nuclear receptor γt (RORγt) is a transcriptional factor responsible for IL-17-producing T-cell differentiation. Although it was demonstrated that RORγt plays essential roles in the onset of autoimmune myocarditis, pathophysiological significance of
Retinoic acid (RA) is a vitamin A derivative that exerts pleiotropic biological effects. Intracellular transport and metabolism of RA are regulated by cellular retinol-binding proteins (CRBP). CRBP-1 is transiently expressed in granulation tissue fibroblasts during wound healing; however, its role
Neurogenesis is regulated by a number of signaling pathways, including the retinoic acid (RA) pathway, a key regulator of neurogenesis in the subventricular zone (SVZ) and hippocampus. Acupuncture has been used to treat neurological conditions and is known to potentially enhance cell proliferation
