CaBP-D28 mRNA expression in rat heart, testis, and lung was assessed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The animal model used was the hyperinduced vitamin D-treated rat (100 ng 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D subcutaneously, daily for 7 days). For the PCR s

High dose beta-carotene supplementation of smokers was associated with increased lung cancer risk in two intervention trials. It was proposed that generation of apocarotenals in smoke-exposed lungs impaired retinoic acid (RA) signaling, leading to sq

UVA exposure causes skin photoaging by singlet oxygen (1O2)-mediated induction of matrix metalloproteases (MMPs). We assessed whether β-carotene, a carotenoid known as 1O2 quencher and retinoic acid (RA) precursor, interferes with UVA-induced gene r

In the present study, we investigated the role of the phytoestrogen genistein and 17beta-estradiol in human bone marrow stromal cells, undergoing induced osteogenic or adipogenic differentiation. Profiling of estrogen receptors (ERs)-alpha, -beta1, -

Estrogen receptors, members of the nuclear hormone receptor family, are not only able to bind their endogenous hormone, 17beta-estradiol, but can also accommodate other naturally-occuring, non-steroidal molecules. Here, we describe a spin-column proc

β,β-Carotene 15,15′-dioxygenase cleaves β,β-carotene into two molecules of retinal, and is the key enzyme in the metabolism of β,β-carotene to vitamin A. The enzyme has been known for more than 40 years, yet all attempts to purify the protein

The effects of tetanus duration on the relaxation rate of extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscles were studied in normal (wild-type, WT) and parvalbumin-deficient (PVKO) mice, at 20 C. In EDL of PVKO, the relaxation

The second messenger Ca2+ is known to act in a broad spectrum of fundamental cell processes, including modifications of cell shape and motility, through the intermediary of intracellular calcium-binding proteins. The possible impact of the lack of th

An alternatively spliced mRNA for the calcium-binding protein calretinin (CR) is present in the colon adenocarcinoma cell line WiDr. As a consequence of a frame shift, the resulting protein, calretinin-22k (CR-22k), consists of the first 178 amino ac
