(9cis)-O~15~-methyl-4-oxoretinoic acid

Description:
(9cis)-O~15~-methyl-4-oxoretinoic acid is a synthetic derivative of retinoic acid, which is a metabolite of vitamin A and plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including vision, immune function, and cellular growth. This compound features a modified retinoid structure, characterized by the presence of a 15-methyl group and a 4-oxo functional group, which influence its biological activity and receptor binding properties. The "9cis" designation indicates the configuration of the double bond at the 9th position, which is essential for its interaction with retinoic acid receptors. This compound is of interest in pharmacological research, particularly in the context of dermatology and oncology, due to its potential effects on cell differentiation and proliferation. Its unique structural features may confer distinct pharmacokinetic properties and therapeutic applications compared to other retinoids. As with many retinoids, careful consideration of dosage and potential side effects is necessary when exploring its use in clinical settings.
