RAR/RXR Agonist

Ch55 (Standard) is the analytical standard of Ch55 (HY-107397). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Ch55 is a potent synthetic retinoid. Ch55 binds to RAR-α and RAR-β receptors with high affinity. Ch55 displays low affinity for cellular retinoic acid binding protein (CRABP). Ch55 is a potent inducer of the differentiation of HL60 cells with an EC₅₀ of 200 nM. Ch55 can be used for cancer research.

Bexarotene (Standard) is the analytical standard of Bexarotene. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Bexarotene (LGD1069) is a high-affinity and selective retinoid X receptors (RXR) agonist with EC₅₀s of 33, 24, 25 nM for RXRα, RXRβ, and RXRγ, respectively. Bexarotene shows limited affinity for RAR receptors (EC₅₀ >10000 nM). Bexarotene can be used for the research of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

Tazarotene-¹³C₆ (AGN 190168-¹³C₆) is ¹³C labeled Tazarotene. Tazarotene (AGN 190168) is a selective retinoic acid receptor (RAR) agonist for the treatment of plaque psoriasis and acne vulgaris. Tazarotene is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

Retinoic acid-d₃-1 is the deuterium labeled Retinoic acid (HY-14649). Retinoic acid is a metabolite of vitamin A that plays important roles in cell growth, differentiation, and organogenesis. Retinoic acid is a natural agonist of RAR nuclear receptors, with IC₅₀s of 14 nM for RARα/β/γ. Retinoic acid bind to PPARβ/δ with Kd of 17 nM. Retinoic acid acts as an inhibitor of transcription factor Nrf2 through activation of retinoic acid receptor alpha.

Isotretinoin-d₅ is the deuterium labeled Isotretinoin. Isotretinoin is an orally active vitamin A derivative and is often be used for the research of severe acne. Isotretinoin also shows anticancer activity.
