  • Title: Retinoic acid receptor transcripts in human umbilical vein endothelial cells.
    Author: Fesus L, Nagy L, Basilion JP, Davies PJ.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1991 Aug 30; 179(1):32-8. PubMed ID: 1715692.
    Abstract:
    Human umbilical vein endothelial cells contain high levels of mRNA for the beta-retinoic acid receptor, and very low levels of alpha-retinoic acid receptor transcripts. The cells responded to retinoic acid with a significant induction of tissue transglutaminase expression but no alterations in the expression of beta-retinoic acid receptor transcripts. The physiological implications of the constitutive expression of this receptor in endothelial cells is discussed.
