Guidelines for the early management of adults with ischemic stroke: a guideline from the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association Stroke Council, Clinical Cardiology Council, Cardiovascular Radiology and Intervention Council, and the Atherosclerotic Peripheral Vascular Disease and Quality of Care Outcomes in Research Interdisciplinary Working Groups: The American Academy of Neurology

Purpose— Our goal is to provide an overview of the current evidence about components of the evaluation and treatment of adults with acute ischemic stroke. The intended audience is physicians and other emergency healthcare providers who treat patients within the first 48 hours after stroke. In addition, information for healthcare policy makers is included. Methods— Members of the panel were appointed by the American Heart Association Stroke Council’s Scientific Statement Oversight Committee and represented different areas of expertise. The panel reviewed the relevant literature with an emphasis on reports published since 2003 and used the American Heart Association Stroke Council’s Levels of Evidence grading algorithm to rate the evidence and to make recommendations. After approval of the statement by the panel, it underwent peer review and approval by the American Heart Association Science Advisory and Coordinating Committee. It is intended that this guideline be fully updated in 3 years. Results— Managem...

Nuclear Hormone Receptors and Gene Expression

VITAMIN A is required for normal growth and development, and retinoic acid (RA) may be the active metabolite in this process1. Recent evidence indicates that RA acts through binding to a nuclear receptor2–5which belongs to the steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily6. The receptors seem to associate with hormone-response elements in the target genes resulting in the activation (or inhibition) of transcription6. Although no interaction of RA–receptor complex with specific DNA sequences has yet been reported, the homology of the different receptors suggests their mechanisms of action are similar. We therefore examined whether the effects of RA on growth could be related to changes in the expression of the growth hormone gene which is known to be transcriptionally regulated by both thyroid and glucocorticoid hormones7. Our results show that RA controls growth hormone production in pituitary GHl cells and that its effect is synergistic with that caused by these hormones.

Retinoic acid regulates growth hormone gene expression.

The Molecular Basis of Vitamin D Receptor and β-Catenin Crossregulation

Retinoic acid (RA) is a potent regulator of neuronal cell differentiation. RA normally activates gene expression by binding to nuclear receptors that interact with response elements (RAREs) in regulatory regions of target genes. We show here that in PC12 cell subclones in which the retinoid causes neurite extension, RA induces a rapid and sustained phosphorylation of CREB (cyclic AMP response element binding protein), compatible with a nongenomic effect. RA also causes a rapid increase of CREB phosphorylation in primary cultures of cerebrocortical cells and of dorsal root ganglia neurons from rat embryos. RA-mediated phosphorylation of CREB leads to a direct stimulation of CREB-dependent transcriptional activity and to activation of the expression of genes such as c-fos, which do not contain RAREs but contain cAMP response elements (CREs) in their promoters. CREB is a major target of extracellular signal regulated kinase ERK1/2 signaling in neuronal cells, and we demonstrate here that RA induces an early stimulation of ERK1/2, which is required both for CREB phosphorylation and transcriptional activity. These results demonstrate that RA, by a nongenomic mechanism, stimulates signaling pathways that lead to phosphorylation of transcription factors, which in turn activate the transcription of genes involved in neuronal differentiation.
