Journal ArticleDOI

9-cis retinoic acid stereoisomer binds and activates the nuclear receptor RXR alpha.

TL;DR: The identification of a stereoisomer of retinoic acid, 9-cis retinol, which directly binds and activates RXRα, which suggests a new role for isomerization in the physiology of natural retinoids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinoic acid receptors and retinoid X receptors: interactions with endogenous retinoic acids

TL;DR: 9-cis forms of endogenous retinoid can contribute to the pleiotropic effects of retinoids by interacting with both the RARs and RXRs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence that secretion of immunoactive inhibin by seminiferous tubules from the adult rat testis is regulated by specific germ cell types: correlation between in vivo and in vitro studies.

TL;DR: To confirm that the changes observed in vivo after MAA treatment were indicative of changes in Sertoli rather than Leydig cell secretion of immonoactive inhibin, its secretion by isolated ST was assessed, and a pattern of change similar to that in plasma was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Binding of 9-cis-retinoic acid and all-trans-retinoic acid to retinoic acid receptors alpha, beta, and gamma. Retinoic acid receptor gamma binds all-trans-retinoic acid preferentially over 9-cis-retinoic acid.

TL;DR: Binding kinetics in vitro and in whole cells suggest that there could be differences in the interactions of the receptor subtypes with the endogenous retinoic acids under physiologic conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

New retinoid X receptor subtypes in zebra fish (Danio rerio) differentially modulate transcription and do not bind 9-cis retinoic acid

TL;DR: Two additional RXR subtypes isolated from zebra fish cDNA libraries are described here; although both subtypes form DNA-binding heterodimers with RARs and TR, neither binds 9-cis RA, and both are transcriptionally inactive on RXR response elements.
