Retinoic Acid Synthesis and Signaling during Early Organogenesis

TL;DR: Recent studies suggest that retinoic acid may act primarily in a paracrine manner and provide insight into the cell-cell signaling networks that control differentiation of pluripotent cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinoic acid signalling during development

TL;DR: An overview of the RA biosynthesis, degradation and signalling pathways is provided and the main functions of this molecule during embryogenesis are reviewed.

Retinoic acid in development: towards an integrated view

TL;DR: Retinoic acid has complex and pleiotropic functions during vertebrate development and some of these functions could be maintained throughout the life of an organism to regulate cell-lineage decisions and/or the differentiation of stem cell populations, highlighting possibilities for regenerative medicine.

Molecular mechanisms of cranial neural crest cell migration and patterning in craniofacial development

TL;DR: Recent work that has begun to shed light on the molecular mechanisms that govern the spatiotemporal patterning of NCC-derived skeletal structures are reviewed – advances that are central to understanding craniofacial development and its evolution.

Identification and developmental expression of the full complement of Cytochrome P450 genes in Zebrafish

TL;DR: It is revealed that the majority of zebrafish CYP genes are expressed in embryos, with waves of expression of different sets of genes over the course of development, which provides a foundation for the use ofZebrafish as a model in toxicological, pharmacological and chemical disease research.

The transcription factor Snail controls epithelial–mesenchymal transitions by repressing E-cadherin expression

TL;DR: It is shown that mouse Snail is a strong repressor of transcription of the E-cadherin gene, opening up new avenues for the design of specific anti-invasive drugs.

Retinoic Acid Embryopathy

TL;DR: It is possible that a major mechanism of isotretinoin teratogenesis is a deleterious effect on cephalic neural-crest cell activity that results in the observed craniofacial, cardiac, and thymic malformations.

Clinical importance of the cytochromes P450.

TL;DR: The human cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily comprises 57 genes that code for enzymes that can have a role in: metabolism of drugs, foreign chemicals, arachidonic acid and eicosanoids; cholesterol metabolism and bile-acid biosynthesis; steroid synthesis and metabolism; vitamin D(3) synthesis; retinoic acid hydroxylation; and those of still unknown function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Embryonic retinoic acid synthesis is essential for early mouse post-implantation development.

TL;DR: It is established that RA synthesized by the post-implantation mammalian embryo is an essential developmental hormone whose lack leads to early embryo death.

Retinoids in Embryonal Development

TL;DR: The key role of vitamin A in embryonal development is reviewed and special emphasis is given to the physiological action of retinoids, as evident from the retinoid ligand knockout models.
