Example sentences for: rars

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

  • The effects of the vitamin A metabolite retinoic acid (RA) are mediated by two classes of ligand dependent transcription factors, the retinoic acid receptors (RAR) and the retinoid X receptors (RXR) [ 1 ] . The RARs are activated by all trans RA and 9-cis RA whereas the RXRs are activated by 9-cis RA only.

  • This phosphorylation was required for the RA mediated differentiation of F9 cells into parietal endoderm [ 8 ] . These studies point to the importance of phosphorylation in the proper functioning of RARs.

  • It is also possible that TAF II 135 expression modulates the activity of transcription factors in addition to the RARs leading to the appearance of this novel cell type.

  • The current experiments investigate the effects of T and its interaction with RA on cell growth and the expression of RARs in human prostate cancer cells, LNCaP.

  • Retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are nuclear transcription factors that mediate the action of retinoids [ 11 12 ] . We have demonstrated that in the rat, castration resulted in an increase in mRNAs for RAR α and γ in the prostate; such effects were prevented by T replacement [ 13 ] . We also demonstrated that the levels of mRNAs for RAR α and γ in non-tumorigenic rat epithelial cells (NRP152) were down-regulated, whereas those in tumorigenic cells (NRP154) were unaffected or up-regulated following T treatment [ 14 ] . In addition, RAR α was over-expressed in tumorigenic NRP154 cells.
