Abstract
The Cytochrome P450 (CYP) family 26 enzymes contribute to retinoic acid (RA) metabolism and homeostasis in humans, mammals and other chordates. The three CYP26 family enzymes, CYP26A1, CYP26B1 and CYP26C1 have all been shown to metabolize all-trans-retinoic acid (atRA) it's 9-cisRA and 13-cisRA isomers and primary metabolites 4-OH-RA and 4-oxo-RA with high efficiency. While no crystal structures of CYP26 enzymes are available, the binding of various ligands has been extensively explored via homology modeling. All three CYP26 enzymes are inducible by treatment with atRA in various prenatal and postnatal tissues and cell types. However, current literature shows that in addition to regulation by atRA, CYP26 enzyme expression is also regulated by other endogenous processes and inflammatory cytokines. In humans and in animal models the expression patterns of CYP26 enzymes have been shown to be tissue and cell type specific, and the expression of the CYP26 enzymes is believed to regulate the formation of critical atRA concentration gradients in various tissue types. Yet, very little data exists on direct disease associations of altered CYP26 expression or activity. Nevertheless, data is emerging describing a variety of human genetic variations in the CYP26 enzymes that are associated with different pathologies. Interestingly, some of these genetic variants result in increased activity of the CYP26 enzymes potentially leading to complex gene-environment interactions due to variability in dietary intake of retinoids. This review highlights the current knowledge of structure-function of CYP26 enzymes and focuses on their role in human retinoid metabolism in different tissues.

Abstract
Systemic isotretinoin has been used to treat severe acne vulgaris for 20 years. However, isotretinoin also represents a potentially useful choice of drugs in many dermatologic diseases other than acne vulgaris. Diseases such as psoriasis, pityriasis rubra pilaris, condylomata acuminata, skin cancers, rosacea, hidradenitis suppurativa, granuloma annulare, lupus erythematosus and lichen planus have been shown to respond to the immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and antitumor activities of the drug. Isotretinoin also helps prevent skin cancers such as basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma. A combination of systemic isotretinoin and interferon-alpha-2a may provide a more potent effect than isotretinoin alone in the prevention and treatment of skin cancers.Systemic isotretinoin may be considered as an alternative drug in some dermatologic diseases unresponsive to conventional treatment modalities. However, randomized clinical trials aimed at determining the role of systemic isotretinoin therapy in dermatologic diseases other than acne vulgaris are required.

Abstract
1. The plasma concentration-time profile of the (14)C-labelled endothelin receptor antagonist tezosentan in healthy male volunteers after a 1-h infusion at 100 mg h(-1) followed a biphasic decline with half-lives of 3-5 min for the initial disposition phase and approximately 4 h for the terminal phase. 2. Tezosentan was predominantly excreted unchanged into faeces, whereas less than 5% of the dose was excreted as unchanged drug in urine. Two isomeric, hydroxylated metabolites (M1, M2) were detected in faeces representing 2-5% of the total radioactivity. 3. In vitro, with human liver microsomes and primary hepatocytes, tezosentan was metabolized at very low rates. Upon prolonged incubation with human hepatocytes for 24 h, formation of the hydroxylated metabolite M1 and a glucuronic acid conjugate, M3, was observed. 4. No relevant inhibition of the human cytochrome P450 (CYP) forms, CYP1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6 and 3A4, was observed in vitro at tezosentan concentrations largely exceeding those observed in clinical trials. 5. In human blood, tezosentan was highly bound to plasma proteins, mainly albumin, and hardly penetrated into red blood cells.

Abstract
Here, we describe the discovery of a new major endogenous vitamin A metabolite with particularly high hepatic concentrations. This metabolite was isolated from mouse livers and was characterized as 9-cis-4-oxo-13,14-dihydro-retinoic acid (RA) based on mass spectral, ultraviolet, and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses. It was also detected in one human liver. To gain further insight into endogenous retinoid metabolism, mice were fed over a period of 14 days ad libitum with diets enriched with different amounts of retinyl palmitate [15,000, 45,000 or 150,000 international units (IU)/kg diet]. Higher retinyl palmitate amounts in the diet resulted surprisingly in a dose-dependent decrease in all-trans-RA levels in serum, kidney, and brain, whereas levels of 9-cis-4-oxo-13,14-dihydro-RA, retinol, and retinyl esters were dose-dependently elevated in serum, kidney, and liver. 13-cis-RA levels could be detected in serum, liver, and kidney, but were unaffected by the dietary vitamin A status. 9-cis-RA levels were below the detection limit of 0.2 ng/ml serum or 0.4 ng/g tissue. This study indicates that the oxidation at C4 of the cyclohexenyl ring, isomerization of the C9/C10 double bond, and reduction of the C13/C14 double bond are major endogenous metabolic pathways of vitamin A.

Abstract
For over 35 years, an independent panel of expert scientists has served as the primary body for evaluating the safety of flavour ingredients. This group, the Expert Panel of the Flavor and Extract Manufacturers' Association (FEMA), has achieved international recognition from the flavour industry, government regulatory bodies including the Food and Drug Administration, and the toxicology community for its unique contributions. To date, the Expert Panel has evaluated the safety of more than 1700 flavour ingredients and determined the vast majority to be "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS). Elements that are fundamental to the safety evaluation of flavour ingredients include exposure, structural analogy, metabolism, pharmacokinetics and toxicology. Flavour ingredients are evaluated individually taking into account the available scientific information on the group of structurally related substances. The elements of the GRAS assessment program as they have been applied by the Expert Panel to the group of 119 alicyclic substances used as flavour ingredients, and the relevant scientific data which provide the basis for the GRAS status of these substances, are described herein.

Abstract
The determination of retinol (vitamin A) and its metabolites, as well as synthetic retinoids, in biological samples is a challenging task due to the sensitivity of these compounds to light, heat and oxygen, high protein binding, separation of geometric isomers and determination of low endogenous levels. Numerous procedures for sample preparation have been published for biological fluids and tissues, consisting of solvent extraction, solid-phase extraction (off-line) and HPLC with column switching (on-line solid-phase extraction). The last-mentioned technique has several advantages, including a high degree of automation, no evaporation of extraction solvents, protection from light and higher sensitivity. Due to the favourable UV characteristics of most retinoids, HPLC with UV detection is most often employed, and photodiode array detection is becoming more and more popular. Fluorescence and electrochemical detection have found only a limited field of application, but the use of LC-MS resulted in a few highly sensitive methods. Reconsideration of GC through the use of better deactivated columns and cold on-column injection and evaluation of new promising separation methods, such as supercritical fluid chromatography and capillary electrophoresis, have shown preliminary encouraging results, but appear to reach the required sensitivity only by coupling to MS. Therefore, HPLC with UV detection is still the method of choice for highly sensitive and selective retinoid determination, as well as for high sample throughput and robustness.

Abstract
Soon after [11-3H]retinoic acid (RA) (1.1 x 10(8) d.p.m.) was administered orally to rats either as a large dose (115 micrograms = 0.38 mumol/rat) or mixed with unlabelled RA as a huge dose (22 mg = 73.33 mumol/rat), retinoyl beta-glucuronide (RAG) was identified and characterized as a significant metabolite in the serum and small intestine. Of the administered dose, 70% remained unchanged as retinoic acid in the stomach up to 1 h. Significant amounts of 5,6-epoxyretinoic acid, 4-hydroxyretinoic acid, esters of retinoic acid and several polar retinoids, including 4-oxoretinoic acid, were also detected in the stomach. No significant difference was observed in the nature of the retinoids found after a large or a huge dose; however, the ratio of RAG/RA was higher after a huge dose than after a large dose. Thus RAG, which is biologically active in vivo and in vitro, is formed quickly in significant amounts in tissues after a dose of RA.

Abstract
Human sebaceous cells, isolated from adult human skin, were cultured on either bovine type I collagen or mitomycin-C-treated 3T3 fibroblasts. Sebaceous cells, termed "sebocytes", were determined to be epithelial in nature by positive staining with monoclonal antikeratin antibodies BG2 and BG12. However, sebocyte colonies were also negative for keratins found in differentiated cells of keratinocyte colonies, as defined by monoclonal antikeratin antibodies CC2 and CC6. Sebocytes did not produce cornified envelopes in vitro and could only be induced to produce small quantities (less than 5%) of envelopes with a calcium ionophore. Sebocyte growth characteristics in a variety of serum, dexamethasone, and hydrocortisone combinations were significantly different from those of human facial keratinocytes. Sebocytes also displayed a growth curve and plating efficiency that were different from those of keratinocytes. Large lipid droplets within growing sebocytes could be visualized with oil red o staining. Additionally, squalene and wax/cholesterol esters were made by sebocytes in vitro in greater amounts than by facial keratinocytes, as determined by thin-layer chromatography of organic extracts of 3H2O-labeled sebocytes. Sebocytes synthesized greater quantities of lipid, on a per-cell and protein basis, than did keratinocytes.
