Retinoid metabolism and nuclear receptor responses: New insights into coordinated regulation of the PPAR–RXR complex

Ziouzenkova, Ouliana, Plutzky, Jorge·2008·FEBS Letters

Abstract

Retinoids, naturally‐occurring vitamin A derivatives, regulate metabolism by activating specific nuclear receptors, including the retinoic acid receptor (RAR) and the retinoid X receptor (RXR). RXR, an obligate heterodimeric partner for other nuclear receptors, including peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors (PPARs), helps coordinate energy balance. Recently, many groups have identified new connections between retinoid metabolism and PPAR responses. We found that retinaldehyde (Rald), a molecule that can yield RA through the action of retinaldehyde dehydrogenases (Raldh), is present in fat in vivo and can inhibit PPARγ‐induced adipogenesis. In vitro, Rald inhibits RXR and PPARγ activation. Raldh1‐deficient mice have increased Rald levels in fat, higher metabolic rates and body temperatures, and are protected against diet‐induced obesity and insulin resistance. Interestingly, one specific asymmetric β‐carotene cleavage product, apo‐14′‐carotenal, can also inhibit PPARγ and PPARα responses. These data highlight how pathways of β‐carotene metabolism and specific retinoid metabolites may have direct distinct metabolic effects.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
