10600643 Alvarez R, Checa M, Brun S, Vinas O, Mampel T, Iglesias R, Giralt M, Villarroya F: Both retinoic-acid-receptor- and retinoid-X-receptor-dependent signalling pathways mediate the induction of the brown-adipose-tissue-uncoupling-protein-1 gene by retinoids. Biochem J. 2000 Jan 1;345 Pt 1:91-7.

Either RAR-specific inverted question markp-[(E)-2-(5,6,7,8,-tetrahydro-5,5,8, 8-tetramethyl-2-naphthalenyl)-1-propenyl] benzoic acid inverted question mark or RXR-specific [isopropyl-(E,E)-(R,S)-11-methoxy-3,7, 11-trimethyldodeca-2,4-dienoate, or methoprene] synthetic compounds increase the expression of UCP-1 mRNA and the activity of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase expression vectors driven by the ucp-1 promoter.
