Example sentences for: all-trans

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

  • The effects of specific RXR ligands on the CAR/RXR heterodimer have not been characterized, although high concentrations of both 9-cis-RA and all-trans retinoic acid have been reported to block PB induction of the CAR targets CYP2B1 and CYP2B2 in primary rat hepatocytes [ 17 ] . In addition, a recent report suggests that both compounds decrease TCPOBOP-dependent CAR transactivation [ 18 ] . In both cases, these effects were primarily attributed to sequestration of limiting amounts of RXR into ligand-dependent homodimers or heterodimers with other receptors.

  • Assay conditions were as given for the spectrophotometric enzyme assays above, with propanal or all-trans retinal used as the aldehyde substrate.

  • The HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell line responds in culture to sub-micromolar concentrations of retinoic acid ( all-trans and 13-cis ) by undergoing terminal differentiation to a granulocytic cell with the ability to phagocytose and reduce nitroblue tetrazolium [ 28 ] . The response to retinoic acid in HL-60 cells is dependent on the expression of the retinoic acid receptor RAR α [ 29 ] . The use of all-trans retinoic acid in differentiation therapy for patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia has resulted in prolonged, complete remissions when combined with cytotoxic chemotherapy, and may provide complete, long-term remissions as a single agent [ 30 ] .

  • 3shows all-trans RA induced conversion of RAR-α as a function of acid concentration.

  • Exposure to 1 μM all-trans retinal for 96 hours induced differentiation equivalent to exposure to 0.05-0.
