Example sentences for: retinoids

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

  • 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.

  • Thus, the CAR/RXR heterodimer responds differently to retinoids on different elements.

  • Reversible change of endothelial cell shape, mutual orientation of cells in certain directions, changes in intercellular contacts, are controlled by a number of factors, such as, cooperative stimulation of the receptors or the systems of second messengers [ 32, 33], dietary ingredients, e.g., retinoids [ 34], exercise [ 35, 36], and fluid-imposed shear stress [ 37, 38, 39].

  • Retinoids are found in a variety of chemical oxidation states, including alcohol, aldehyde, ester, and carboxylic acid functionalities.
