Biochem/physiol Actions

EC23 is a synthetic, photostable all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) analog/mimetic that targets RAR with greater affinity than ATRA (RARα/β/γ EC50 by cell-free TR-FRET binding assay = 3.7/3.3/16.8 with EC23 vs. 16.0/17.6/14.7 nM with ATRA) and does not bind retinoid x receptors (RXRs). EC23 induces differentiation of human pluripotent embryonic stem cells (0.1-10 μM) with a similar or better efficiency than ATRA.
Photostable all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) mimetic that targets RAR with greater affinity and induces stem cells differentiation with better efficiency than ATRA.

Daniel J Maltman et al.
Molecular bioSystems, 5(5), 458-471 (2009-04-22)
The natural retinoid, all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), is widely used to direct the in vitro differentiation of stem cells. However, substantial degradation and isomerisation of ATRA in response to UV-vis light has serious implications with regard to experimental reproducibility and

Molecular neurobiology, 55(3), 1942-1950 (2017-03-01)
All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) plays key roles in neurogenesis mediated by retinoic acid receptors (RARs). RARs are important targets for the therapeutic regulation of neurogenesis but effective drug development depends on modelling-based strategies to design high-specificity ligands in combination with
Kirsty E Clarke et al.
Neurochemistry international, 106, 74-84 (2016-12-25)
The inability of neurites to grow and restore neural connections is common to many neurological disorders, including trauma to the central nervous system and neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, there is need for a robust and reproducible model of neurite outgrowth, to

Cell reports, 19(8), 1685-1697 (2017-05-26)
Retinoic acid (RA) plays important roles in development, growth, and homeostasis through regulation of the nuclear receptors for RA (RARs). Herein, we identify Hypermethylated in Cancer 1 (Hic1) as an RA-inducible gene. HIC1 encodes a tumor suppressor, which is often
Victoria B Christie et al.
Organic & biomolecular chemistry, 6(19), 3497-3507 (2008-12-17)
All-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) and its associated analogues are important mediators of cell differentiation and function during the development of the nervous system. It is well known that ATRA can induce the differentiation of neural tissues from human pluripotent stem cells.
