Abstract
► Treatment with all-trans retinoic acid reduces body fat and improves insulin sensitivity in mice by promoting fat mobilisation and catabolism. ► Retinoid-induced hypertriglyceridemia is, however, frequently encountered in humans and animal models. ► There is an intimate cross-talk between retinoid and lipid metabolism. ► Molecular mechanisms of retinoid effects on lipid metabolism are complex and not fully understood.
