RARα

AM580 (CD336) is a retinoic acid receptor agonist that is selective for RARα( IC50 : 8 nM )

Compound 21, an orally active and selective RARα antagonist, exhibits a potent inhibition of the retinoic acid receptor α with an IC50 of 4.6 nM [1].

Retinoic acid (Tretinoin), a metabolite of vitamin A, is a natural agonist of the retinoic acid receptor RAR and inhibits RARα β γ (IC50=14 nM). Retinoic acid induces cellular differentiation, reduces cellular proliferation, and inhibits tumorigenesis.

Acitretin (Ro 10-1670) is a second-generation systemic retinoid used in the treatment of psoriasis.

Isotretinoin (13-cis-Retinoic acid) binds to and activates nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs), which act as transcription factors that promote cell differentiation and apoptosis. This naturally occurring retinoic acid has potential antineoplastic activity, exhibits immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory responses, and inhibits ornithine decarboxylase, thereby decreasing polyamine synthesis and keratinization.

AGN 192870 is a potent retinoic acid receptor (RAR) antagonist.AGN 192870 can be used to study cell growth arrest, differentiation and apoptosis.

Latanoprost (Xalatan) is a prostaglandin F2alpha analogue and a prostanoid selective FP receptor agonist with an ocular hypertensive effect.

ER-50891 is a potent retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARα) antagonist. er-50891 reduces the inhibitory effect of allosteric retinoic acid and restores osteoblast differentiation induced by bone morphogenetic protein 2.

Adapalene (CD271) is a dual RAR and RXR agonist, utilized in the treatment of skin conditions.

Tamibarotene (Amnolake) is an orally active, synthetic retinoid, developed to overcome all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) resistance, with potential antineoplastic activity.

AGN 194078 is a selective RARα agonist with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 3 nM and an effective concentration (EC50) of 112 nM.

Retinol (Alphalin) and derivatives of retinol that play an essential role in metabolic functioning of the retina, the growth of and differentiation of epithelial tissue, the growth of bone, reproduction, and the immune response. Dietary vitamin A is derived from a variety of CAROTENOIDS found in plants. It is enriched in the liver, egg yolks, and the fat component of dairy products.

Ch55 (3,5-Di-tert-butylchalcone) is an effective inducer of the differentiation of HL60 cells (EC50 = 200 nM) and shows high affinity with RAR-α and RAR-β receptors. Ch55 can be used in studies about cancer.

AR7 is a retinoic acid receptor α (RARα) antagonist.

AGN 196996 is a potent and selective inhibitor of RARα (Ki: 2 nM), exhibiting very low affinity for RARβ (Ki: 1087 nM) and RARγ (Ki: 8523 nM).

BMS453 (BMS-189453), a synthetic retinoid, is a potent and selective agonist of RARβ and a potent testicular toxin. BMS453 inhibits breast cell growth predominantly through the induction of active TGFβ.

BMS641 (BMS-209641) is a selective and potent RARβ agonist with high affinity for RARβ, which synergistically activates RARβ and RARgamma to induce cellular maturation into specialized neuronal subtypes.

Adapalene (CD 271; Differin) sodium salt is a synthetic retinoid and a Retinoic acid receptor agonist.

AGN 205327 is a potent synthetic RAR agonist with EC50 values of 3766, 734, and 32 nM for RARα, RARβ, and RARγ respectively, without inhibiting RXR. [IC50 value: 3766 734 32 nM for RARα β γ] [Target: RAR agonist]

AGN 205728 is a potent and selective RARγ antagonist (Ki: 3 nM; IC95: 0.6 nM) with no inhibition on RARα and RARβ.

TTNPB (Ro 13-7410,AGN-191183), a potent RAR agonist, inhibits binding of [3H]tRA of human RARα (IC50: 5.1 nM), β (IC50: 4.5 nM), and γ (IC50: 9.3 nM), respectively.

AGN 194310 (VTP-194310) is a pan-antagonist for retinoic acid receptors (RARs), with Kd values of 3 nM, 2 nM, and 5 nM for RARα, RARβ, and RARγ, respectively[1][2].

AGN 195183 is a potent and selective agonist of RARα(Kd=3 nM) with improved binding selectivity relative to AGN 193836; no activity on RARβ/γ. IC50 value: 3 nM (Kd); 200 nM (EC80, RAR Trans.) Target: RARα agonist Compound 4(AGN-195183) inhibited the growt

Amsilarotene (TAC101) inhibits the phosphorylation of retinoblastoma gene product (RB) and increases the presence of 2 cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) inhibitors resulting in cell cycle arrest. This agent also causes a cytotoxic decline in the thymidylate synthase and cyclin A expression.
