Description
Observational studies in human suggest involvement of vitamin A/retinoic acid (RA) signaling in the regulation of airway smooth muscle (ASM) function, but the precise mechanisms by which RA impacts ASM phenotype is not clear. Here, we generated trascriptional profiles from two different models of RA-sufficient and RA-deficient mouse ASM in order to determine the molecular targets of RA in ASM (VAS/VAD, CTR/BMS)
