Example sentences for: aldh

How can you use “aldh” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Although ALDH1A2 appears only to catalyze the oxidation of all-trans retinal to all-trans retinoic acid, both ALDH1A1 and CYP1 and CYP3A [ 34 ] enzymes are capable of oxidizing 9-cis retinal to 9-cis retinoic acid.

  • Seventeen ALDH genes have been identified in the human genome and have been classified into ten different families based on amino acid sequence identities [ 1 2 ] . High levels of ALDH1A1 activity can protect human and murine cells from the toxicity of the alkylating agent cyclophosphamide and its oxazaphosphorine analogs.

  • In vitro, purified mouse [ 11 ] , human [ 12 ] , and Xenopus [ 13 ] ALDH1A1 can efficiently oxidize all-trans retinal to all-trans retinoic acid.

  • We have identified 4-(N, N-dipropylamino)benzaldehyde (DPAB) (Figure 1B) and 4-(N, N-diethylamino) benzaldehyde (DEAB) as potent, selective inhibitors of ALDH1A1, but not ALDH2 or ALDH3, with the dipropyl analog exhibiting 10-fold greater efficacy for inhibition [ 19 20 ] . The effect of DPAB on ALDH1A2 has not been reported.

  • In addition, our results indicate that in HL60 cells, the prototype cell line for studying retinoic acid induced cell differentiation, ALDH1A1 is not the operative oxidizing enzyme for retinal.
