4-[(5,6,7,8-TETRAHYDRO-5,5,8,8-TETRAMETHYL-2-NAPHTHALENYL)CARBOXAMIDO]BENZOIC ACID

Description

AM-580 (102121-60-8) is a retinoic acid analog acting as a RARα agonist (Kd = 8 nM).1 Induces or blocks differentiation depending on cell type and environment.2,3 In combination with CHIR-99021 it induces differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into intermediate mesoderm (80% induction rate in 5 days) capable of forming kidney structures.4 AM-580 exhibits anti-angiogenic activity in vivo, and induces differentiation of acute promyelocytic leukemia cells.5,6

The Uses of 4-[(5,6,7,8-TETRAHYDRO-5,5,8,8-TETRAMETHYL-2-NAPHTHALENYL)CARBOXAMIDO]BENZOIC ACID

Retinoid derivative used for gene expression studies of leukemia-retinoic acid receptor (PHL-RAR) cell line differentiation. AM 580 inhibits tumor proliferation by reducing the level of RARγ and activates RAR β. This receptor increases the expression of disintegrin and metalloprotease.

What are the applications of Application

AM 580 is a retinoic acid analog and selective RARα agonist

Definition

ChEBI: An amidobenzoic acid obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of (5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)benzoic acid with the anilino group of 4-aminobenzoic acid. A selective RARalpha agonist.

General Description

AM580 is a retinobenzoic derivative and a RAR-α (retinoic acid receptor-α) agonist. It stimulates the maturation of granulocytes in NB4 promyelocytic leukemia cell line and APL (acute promyelocytic leukemia) blasts. AM580 suppresses endometrial cancer cell proliferation.

Biological Activity

An analog of retinoic acid that acts as a selective RAR α agonist (EC 50 values are 0.3, 8.6 and 13 nM for RAR α , RAR β and RAR γ respectively). Significantly induces IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 and inhibits IL-12 and IFN γ synthesis, and induces cell differentiation with over 7 times the activity of retinoic acid in vitro .
