metabolism
-
retinol signaling plays an important role in the establishment and maintenance of cellular phenotype in embryonic and adult vertebrate tissues. all-trans-Retinoic acid functions as the activating ligand for a family of ligand-activated transcription factors, the retinoic acid receptors, which form heterodimers with the retinoid X receptors to regulate gene transcription. Through its activation of the receptors, all-trans-retinoic acid regulates the expression of over 500 protein-coding genes
physiological function
-
RetSat is required for adipocyte differentiation in the 3T3-L1 cell culture model, analysis of the mechanism involved in this putative proadipogenic effect of RetSat, overview. RetSat-null mice have normal levels of retinol and retinyl palmitate in liver, serum, and adipose tissue, but, in contrast to wild-type mice, are deficient in the production of all-trans-13,14-dihydroretinol from dietary vitamin A. Despite accumulating more fat, RetSat-null mice maintained on either low-fat or high-fat diets gain weight and have similar rates of food intake as age- and gender-matched wild-type control littermates, ablation of RetSat does not result in alterations in total body weight gain but could still affect the relative composition and size of adipose stores, phenotype, overview

analysis
-
the mouse pluripotent P-19 cell metabolizes retinol to atRA and thus can be used in a cell-based screen for disruptors of the pathway. The disruption of the pathway is easily detected and quantitated, the P-19 cell provides an in vitro model system for identifying and exploring the mechanism of action of chemicals that interfere with the critical cellular pathway
medicine
-
RetSat plays an important role in the biology of adipocytes, where it favors normal differentiation, yet is reduced in the obese state, RetSat is thus a novel target for therapeutic intervention in metabolic disease
