Biological Activity

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.
Targets
RXR [1]
In vitro
In vitro Bexarotene treatment at 1 mM and 10 mM for 96 h increases the number of cells with sub-G1 populations and annexin V binding in a dose-dependent manner compared with vehicle controls (DMSO) in well-established CTCL cell lines (MJ, Hut78, and HH), respectively. Bexarotene treatment suppresses the expression of retinoid X receptor alpha and retinoic acid receptor alpha proteins in all three lines compared with untreated controls. Bexarotene treatment decreases the protein levels of survivin, activates caspase-3, and cleaved poly(ADP-Ribose) polymerase, but has no obvious effect on expression of Fas/Fas ligand and bcl-2 proteins in all three CTCL lines. [1] Bexarotene induces a loss of viability and more pronounced inhibition of clonogenic proliferation in HH and Hut-78 cells, whereas the MJ line exhibits resistance. Bexarotene upregulates and activates Bax in sensitive lines, although not enough to signal significant apoptosis. Bexarotene signals both G(1) and G(2)/M arrest by the modulation of critical checkpoint proteins. Bexarotene activates p53 by phosphorylation at Ser15, which influences the binding of p53 to promoters for cell cycle arrest, induces p73 upregulation, and, in concordance, also modulates some p53/p73 downstream target genes, such as p21, Bax, survivin and cdc2.

In Vivo
In vivo Bexarotene significantly prevents ER-negative mammary tumorigenesis with less toxicity than naturally occurring retinoids in animal models. Bexarotene inhibits the development of preinvasive mammary lesions such as hyperplasias and carcinoma-in-situ in MMTV-erbB2 mice. [3]

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.
