Background/aim: Stem-like cancer cells are believed to be the leading cause of therapy resistance in malignant melanoma (MM). All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) differentiation therapy is considered a promising approach to eradicate stem-like cancer cells, but some melanoma cells are resistant to ATRA. This study aimed to examine whether resveratrol (RS), a natural polyphenol compound, could improve the response of MM stem-like cells to ATRA and explore the possible underlying mechanisms.

Recent studies have unveiled disrupted metabolism in the progression of cleft palate (CP), a congenital anomaly characterized by defective fusion of facial structures. Nonetheless, the precise composition of this disrupted metabolism remains elusive, prompting us to identify these components and elucidate primary metabolic irregularities contributing to CP pathogenesis. We established a murine CP model by retinoic acid (RA) treatment and analyzed control and RA-treated embryonic palatal tissues by LC-MS-based proteomic approach.

Neuronal differentiation and neurite growth are essential processes in nervous system development and are regulated by several factors. Although all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) has been shown to mediate the differentiation of mouse neuroblastoma cells via the activation of several pathways, including Wnt/β-catenin signaling, the mechanism remains unclear. The pyruvate kinase, muscle (PKM) plays an important role in the glycolysis of neuroblastoma cells and regulates the Wnt signaling pathway in various cancer cells.

Atherosclerosis is a major contributor to cardiovascular disease, characterized by inflammation and lipid accumulation in arterial walls, leading to plaque formation. Elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is a primary risk factor for atherosclerosis. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), a metabolite of vitamin A, has demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects and potential in regulating vascular injury.

Glioma is a primary tumor of the central nervous system. Numerous investigations have demonstrated that retinoic acid (RA) signaling plays an important role in glioblastoma. This research aimed to develop a RA metabolism-related gene signature associated with glioma.
