Usage And Synthesis:

Chemical Properties: Yellow-Orange Powder UsagePhysiological metabolite of vitamin A. Effects gene expression via nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RAR); mediates cellular growth and differentiation General DescriptionYellow to light-orange crystalline powder. Air & Water ReactionsTretinoin may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air. Insoluble in water. Reactivity ProfileTretinoin may discolor on exposure to light. Tretinoin is extremely sensitive to exposure to light and, therefore, Tretinoin should be fully protected from light during all handling. Solutions are unstable in the presence of strong oxidizers. Tretinoin is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. . Fire HazardFlash point data for Tretinoin are not available; however, Tretinoin is probably combustible. Biological ActivityEndogenous agonist for retinoic acid receptors. Also positively modulates PPAR d receptors (K d = 17 nM). Promotes differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) into adipocytes, neurons and glia in vitro . Tretinoin
