We have previously reported an unexpected relationship between retinoic acid-induced inhibition of cell growth and the ability of various cell lines to metabolize the retinoid. Here, we report that stable expression of the truncated retinoic acid receptor RAR alpha403, transduced in NIH-3T3 cells by a retroviral vector, rendered the cells resistant to retinoic acid for growth inhibition and reduced their ability to metabolize the retinoid at the same time as it blunted the induction of the target gene transglutaminase II. The data suggest that retinoic acid receptors mediate the growth-inhibitory action of retinoic acid as well as its metabolism and the induction of transglutaminase II.

Abstract
We have previously reported an unexpected relationship between retinoic acid-induced inhibition of cell growth and the ability of various cell lines to metabolize the retinoid. Here, we report that stable expression of the truncated retinoic acid receptor RAR alpha403, transduced in NIH-3T3 cells by a retroviral vector, rendered the cells resistant to retinoic acid for growth inhibition and reduced their ability to metabolize the retinoid at the same time as it blunted the induction of the target gene transglutaminase II. The data suggest that retinoic acid receptors mediate the growth-inhibitory action of retinoic acid as well as its metabolism and the induction of transglutaminase II.Pubblicazioni consigliate
