Association of Retinoic Acid Receptors with Extracellular Matrix Accumulation in Rats with Renal Interstitial Fibrosis Disease

The nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs) function as ligand-dependent transcriptional regulators and include three subtypes (RARα, RARβ and RARγ), which control the expression of specific gene subsets subsequent to ligand binding and to strictly controlled phosphorylation processes. Extracellular...
