The role of retinoic acid in the repair of the human alveolus
2021-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Reactivation of developmental pathways holds promise as regenerative therapy for parenchymal lung diseases. Retinoic acid (RA) is a small molecule with pleiotropic effects, which is essential for correct alveologenesis during lung development. All-trans RA (ATRA) and RA receptor (RAR) specific agonists can induce alveolar regeneration in animal models of alveolar insufficiency. However, encouraging preclinical dat...
