Stemolecule™ All-Trans Retinoic Acid
Description
Stemolecule™ All-Trans Retinoic Acid is the oxidized form of Vitamin A and functions as a signaling molecule for various developmental pathways that control differentiation1 and proliferation2. It acts by binding to heterodimers of the retinoic acid receptor (RAR) and the retinoid X receptor (RXR), which then bind to retinoic acid response elements (RAREs) in the regulatory regions activating gene transcription3. All-Trans Retinoic Acid has been implicated in specification of the embryonic anterior/posterior axis through Hox gene regulation4. It has been used in various differentiation protocols, including B-cells2, T cells5 and neurons6-9, and applied clinically to treat cancer as a form of differentiation-induction therapy10,11.
