Identification of novel subtype selective RAR agonists.

TLDR
A novel functional cell-based assay R-SATtrade mark was employed to screen a small molecule chemical library and identify a variety of novel RAR agonists with various subtype selectivities, including RARbeta/gamma and RARgamma selective agonists.

Liposomal formulation of retinoids designed for enzyme triggered release.

TL;DR: Four different retinoid phospholipid prodrugs are synthesized and it is shown that they form particles in the liposome size region with average diameters of 94-118 nm and releasing cytotoxic retinoids and lysolipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a small molecule SIRT2 inhibitor with selective tumor cytotoxicity.

TL;DR: A novel SIRT2 inhibitor with high content analysis suggested that AC-93253 significantly triggered apoptosis and may serve as a novel chemical scaffold for structure-activity relationship study and future lead development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinoid Receptors and Therapeutic Applications of RAR/RXR Modulators

TL;DR: Strategies in the design of selective RXR and RAR modulators are described and the structural mechanisms by which the diverse pharmacological classes of compounds modulate receptor functions are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of the first synthetic steroidogenic factor 1 inverse agonists: pharmacological modulation of steroidogenic enzymes.

TL;DR: 4-(heptyloxy)phenol (AC-45594), a prototype inverse agonist lead, was used to show that SF-1 constitutive activity can be pharmacologically modulated by a synthetic ligand.

Drug-like properties and the causes of poor solubility and poor permeability

TL;DR: There are currently about 10000 drug-like compounds, and true diversity does not exist in experimental combinatorial chemistry screening libraries because current ADME experimental screens are multi-mechanisms, and predictions get worse as more data accumulates.

Retinoic acid induces neuronal differentiation of a cloned human embryonal carcinoma cell line in vitro

TL;DR: Observations constitute the first instance of extensive somatic differentiation of a clonal human EC cell line in vitro when exposed to retinoic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differentially expressed isoforms of the mouse retinoic acid receptor beta generated by usage of two promoters and alternative splicing.

TL;DR: The conservation of RAR‐beta isoform sequences from mouse to human, as seen by cross‐hybridization on Southern blots or DNA sequence analysis, as well as their differential patterns of expression in various mouse tissues, corroborates this view.

Impaired Locomotion and Dopamine Signaling in Retinoid Receptor Mutant Mice

TL;DR: In the adult mouse, single and compound null mutations in the genes for retinoic acid receptor beta and retinoid X receptors beta and gamma resulted in locomotor defects related to dysfunction of the mesolimbic dopamine signaling pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinoic acid receptor beta mediates the growth-inhibitory effect of retinoic acid by promoting apoptosis in human breast cancer cells.

TL;DR: RAR beta can mediate retinoid action in breast cancer cells by promoting apoptosis and loss of RAR beta, therefore, may contribute to the tumorigenicity of human mammary epithelial cells.
