Etretinate Retinoid Receptor agonist

Cat.No.S4699

Etretinate (Tegison, Ethyl etrinoate, Retinoid, Etretinato,Ro 10-9359) is an oral aromatic retinoid acid which is effective in psoriasis and other dermatological syndromes. It activates retinoid receptors, causing an induction of cell differentiation, inhibition of cell proliferation, and inhibition of tissue infiltration by inflammatory cells.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
RAR [1]
In vivo

There is a significant decrease in mean dermal thickness (P < 0.05) and changes in collagen bundles in the etretinate-treated mice group for a 28-day period compared to control groups. TUNEL assay shows that the density of TUNEL-positive cells in the dermis of etretinate-treated mice for a 14-day period is significantly increased (P < 0.05). The ratio of procollagen α 1 (I) chain to β actin mRNA from etretinate-treated mice for a 1-day period decreased significantly compared to that of the control mice, but the ratio from etretinatetreated mice for a 14-day period increased significantly (P < 0.05)[2]. Etretinate reduces dermal thickness, and suppresses the appearance of skin lesions by inducting apoptosis and perhaps regulation of cytokine expression in MRL/lpr mice[3].
