The treatment with all-trans retinoic acid causes apoptosis without chromosomal instability in adipose-derived stem cells and might act starting the browning process
Abstract:Introduction: The knowledge about the biology of obesity and apoptosis induction of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) may support in the development of new therapies. Objective: The present research aimed to investigate the toxicogenic effect of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) as well as its influence in the adipogenic differentiation and expression of genes related to DNA damage, cell cycle and thermogenesis. Methodology: Cell cultures of human adipose-derived stem cells were treated for 12 hours with ATRA (2… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
