Basic Info

Retinoic acid, also known as retinoic acid, is an intermediate product of vitamin A metabolism in the body. It is a commonly used dermatological medication in clinical practice and is widely used. Retinoic acid can promote epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation, affect skin metabolism, inhibit sebaceous gland lipid secretion, promote keratinization, improve follicular sebaceous gland duct keratinization, and have anti-inflammatory effects.

The molecular formula of Retinoic acid is C20H28O2, which is a yellow crystalline powder. It is slightly soluble in water but easily soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and chloroform. Its melting point is 180-182 ° C, which is unstable under light and high temperature conditions and needs to be stored away from light.

The chemical structure of Retinoic acid contains a carboxylic acid group and a conjugated polyene chain, which gives it strong biological activity and antioxidant properties. Due to its double bond structure, Retinoic acid is prone to oxidation reactions, so it is necessary to avoid contact with oxidants during storage and use.

Retinoic acid

Retinoic acid is a vitamin A derivative with extensive biological activity, which has important applications in fields such as medicine, cosmetics, scientific research, and agriculture.

NO 1. Retinoic acid inhibits the growth environment of Propionibacterium acnes by regulating the proliferation and differentiation of hair follicle keratinocytes, reducing keratinocyte embolism.
Retinoic acid can stimulate collagen synthesis in the dermis layer, reduce wrinkles, pigmentation, and skin sagging caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and is clinically used to treat photoinduced skin diseases.
Retinoic acid can inhibit excessive epidermal proliferation and improve keratinized skin diseases such as psoriasis and ichthyosis.

NO 2. Retinoic acid promotes epidermal renewal, accelerates stratum corneum shedding, promotes new cell generation, and makes the skin smoother and more delicate.
By activating fibroblasts, Retinoic acid can reduce fine lines and improve skin elasticity, making it a core ingredient in anti-aging skincare products.
Retinoic acid inhibits tyrosinase activity, reduces melanin production, and is used to treat pigmentary diseases such as melasma and acne scars.


NO 3. Retinoic acid significantly improves the remission rate of APL patients by inducing cancer cell differentiation rather than direct killing, and is often used in combination with arsenic agents. Retinoic acid can also show potential anti-tumor effect in breast cancer, prostate cancer, neuroblastoma and other studies, which may be achieved by regulating tumor microenvironment or inhibiting angiogenesis.


NO 4. Retinoic acid is a key signaling molecule for the development of limbs, heart, and nervous system in vertebrates, and is commonly used in the study of congenital malformations. In vitro culture, Retinoic acid can induce embryonic stem cells or induce pluripotent stem cells to differentiate into nerve cells, cardiomyocytes, etc.


NO 5. Retinoic acid promotes regulatory T cell differentiation and inhibits Th17 cells, which may be used in autoimmune diseases.
Retinoic acid is synthesized by dendritic cells in the intestine and affects mucosal immunity. Study its role in inflammatory bowel disease.


NO 6. Treatment of ophthalmic diseases
Retinoic acid promotes the proliferation of corneal epithelial cells and is used for repair after dry eye syndrome or chemical burns.
Retinoic acid is involved in visual pigment metabolism, and its role in age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa is studied.
Retinoic acid has become a hot topic in interdisciplinary research due to its diverse biological functions.
