Discrepancy between prolactin (PRL) messenger ribonucleic acid and PRL content in rat fetal pituitary cells: possible role of dopamine (1988)

Hooghe-Peters, E L, Belayew, A, Herregodts, P, Velkeniers, B, Smets, G, Martial, Joseph, ...

Data are controversial concerning the time when PRL-synthesizing cells are detected for the first time in the rat pituitary. Using a very sensitive immunocytochemical technique, we could visualize...

Islet Cell Surface Antibodies from Insulin-dependent Diabetics Bind Specifically to Pancreatic B Cells

Smets, G., Gepts, W., Pipeleers, D.

Viable rat islet cells were used to detect islet cell surface antibodies (ICSA) in the sera of diabetic and control patients. ICSA were present in almost all recent-onset insulin-dependent diabetics...

Identification of a D1 dopamine receptor, not linked to adenylate cyclase, on lactotroph cells.

Schoors, D. F., Vauquelin, G. P., De Vos, H., Smets, G., Velkeniers, B., Vanhaelst, L., ...

1. We studied the lactotroph cells of the rat by both in vivo and in vitro pharmacological techniques for the presence of D1-receptors. Both approaches revealed the presence of D2-receptor,...

The antiproliferative activity of all-trans-retinoic acid catabolites and isomers is differentially modulated by liarozole-fumarate in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells.

Van Heusden, J., Wouters, W., Ramaekers, F. C., Krekels, M. D., Dillen, L., Borgers, M., ...

The clinical use of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) in the treatment of cancer is significantly hampered by the prompt emergence of resistance, believed to be caused by increased ATRA catabolism....

All-trans-retinoic acid metabolites significantly inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells in vitro.

Van Heusden, J., Wouters, W., Ramaekers, F. C., Krekels, M. D., Dillen, L., Borgers, M., ...

All-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) is well known to inhibit the proliferation of human breast cancer cells. Much less is known about the antiproliferative activity of the naturally occurring metabolites...
