Description
Bexarotene is a retinoid specifically selective for retinoid X receptors, used as an oral antineoplastic agent in the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. (In Vitro) :Bexarotene selectively binds and activates RXR subtypes with Kd=14±2 nM, 21±4 nM, and 29±7 nM for RXRα, RXRβ, and RXRγ subtypes. Bexarotene is effective in limiting the proliferation of leukemic (HL-60) cells. Bexarotene inhibits the proliferation of HL-60 cells by 37% at 1 μM. Bexarotene monotherapy of cells shows an antiproliferative effect at a high dose, and the IC50s aere 40.62±0.45 μM (PC3) and 50.20±4.10 μM (DU145) . Bexarotene (20 and 40 μM) and Docetaxel (5 and 10 μM) exhibit a synergistic effect on the inhibition of PC3 and DU145 cell proliferation.Bexarotene (20 and 40 μM) represses cyclin D1 and cyclin D3 expression in PC3 and DU145 cells. (In Vivo) :Bexarotene (1 mg/kg/day) is effective in blocking the development of behavioral deficits and dopamine neuron degeneration in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease (PD) producing significantly reduced changes in both triglycerides and T4 serum. Bexarotene is an effective preventive agent against lung tumor growth and progression. Bexarotene ((100 mg/kg by gavage) inhibits both tumor multiplicity and tumor volume in mice of all three genotypes (p53wt/wtK-raswt/wt, p53val135/wtK-raswt/wt, or p53wt/wtK-rasko/wt) . Bexarotene reduces the progression of adenoma to adenocarcinoma by ~50% in both p53wt/wtK-rasko/wt and p53wt/wtK-raswt/wt mice.
