Abstract
Tretinoin is known to be a pharmaceutical drug for treating acne vulgaris, keratosis pilaris, and acute promyelocytic leukemia. In order to reveal the possible conformers of tretinoin, the energies of all the conformers through rotational bonds have been evaluated by systematic rotor search analysis. The intramolecular interactions ranging from strong hydrogen bonds to weak van der Waals forces present in tretinoin have been distinguished with the help of electron density mapping and wavefunction analysis. The global reactivity descriptors and Fukui functions of tretinoin have been calculated and discussed. The sites suitable for electrophilic attack and nucleophilic attack have been identified with the help of Hirshfeld partitioning. The vibrational spectroscopic signature of tretinoin and mixed mode band assignments have been elucidated with the help of experimental and simulated spectra.

Abstract
PURPOSE Novel retinoic acid metabolism blocking agent (RAMBA), VN/12-1, is a highly potent anti-cancer agent that induces autophagy. Its combination with autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CHL) has been shown to synergistically enhance apoptosis in breast cancer cells. The purpose of this study was to determine the toxicity and pharmacokinetic profile of VN/12-1 and its combination with CHL. METHODS Preliminary toxicology of VN/12-1 was determined using female SCID mice (n = 4 for each group). ATRA was used for comparison. We selected four different doses of VN/12-1 and ATRA. Two of the doses were low and less frequent (2.5 and 5 mg/kg twice a week), and the remaining doses were high and more frequent (10 and 20 mg/kg every day). The dose of CHL was 50 mg/kg twice a week. For pharmacokinetic (PK) study, 20 mg/kg of VN/12-1 was injected subcutaneously (s.c.) into the mice, and their plasma was collected at various intervals (n = 2) and analyzed by HPLC. RESULTS The lower and less frequent doses of VN/12-1 and ATRA were found to be least toxic. However, high and more frequent doses of these compounds were toxic to the mice. PK results showed that VN/12-1 has a half-life of 6 h. The area under the curve (AUC) for VN/12-1 was 83.78 h μg/ml. CONCLUSIONS VN/12-1 and ATRA are non-toxic when used as 5 mg/kg twice a week as single agents or in combination with CHL. The favorable PK properties of VN/12-1 can potentially be used for its further advanced pre-clinical and clinical development.

Abstract
PURPOSE Novel potent C-4 azolyl retinoic acid metabolism blocking agents (RAMBAs)-VN/14-1, VN/50-1, VN/66-1, VN/67-1, and VN/69-1, have been synthesized and investigated for their in vitro and in vivo effects against breast and prostate cancers. These RAMBAs, in addition to being potent inhibitors of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) metabolism have potent anti-cancer properties and in vivo anti-tumor efficacies as characterized in breast and prostate cancer models. Here we determined the toxicity and pharmacokinetics (PK) of these various RAMBAs. METHODS Preliminary acute toxicity studies of these RAMBAs were carried out using Swiss NIH mice. The toxicity profile of the RAMBAs was evaluated relative to ATRA. Three different doses (8.3, 33, and 100 micromol/kg/day) of ATRA and RAMBAs were administered on a daily basis subcutaneously for 14 days to the mice. Clinical signs of toxicity alopecia, scaly skin, and loss of body weight in the mice were observed during the study and the maximum tolerated dose was determined. PK of selected agents (VN/14-1, VN/50-1, and VN/66-1) was studied in Balb/C mice after a single dose subcutaneous administration. Plasma concentrations of the agents were quantitatively determined using a high-performance liquid chromatographic method with ultraviolet detection. Plasma concentration versus time profiles were fit to various PK structural models and relevant PK parameters were estimated. RESULTS VN/66-1 and VN/69-1 were found to be the least toxic even at the highest doses when compared to the other RAMBAs and ATRA. VN/66-1 had the longest half-life, the slowest clearance, and the greatest exposure. CONCLUSIONS Based on PK characteristics and toxicity studies, VN/66-1 appeared to be the most favorable agent. However, both VN/14-1 and VN/66-1 are our leads based on the fact that VN/14-1 has been found to be highly effective in endocrine-sensitive and -resistant breast cancer cells and tumors with little toxicity. Our findings provide valuable information that will be used to select RAMBAs and establish therapeutic regimens that provide optimal efficacy with minimal toxicity.

Abstract
9-cis-Retinoic acid (RA) analogues devised to lock the 9-cis double bond by ring formation were synthesized using two stereoselective carbon-carbon bond formation reactions as key steps. The palladium-mediated Suzuki reaction was adopted to construct a 7E-double bond (RA numbering) and the Horner-Emmons olefination was employed for stereoselective 11E-double bond (RA numbering) formation. The synthesized 9-cis-RA analogues that are locked by five-membered ring systems (cyclopentene, dihydrofuran, and dihydrothiophene) were shown to have comparable thrombomodulin induction activities to that of 9-cis RA. Conformational analysis of these compounds showed their similarity to 9-cis RA in the spatial orientation of the side chain and the terminal carboxy group.

Abstract
13-Demethyl or 13-substituted all-E- and 9Z-retinoic acids were synthesized using a palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of enol triflates and tributylstannylolefins. Their biological activities were then measured. The 13-ethyl analogs exhibited approximately one-half of the antiproliferative and differentiation-inducing activity of ATRA in HL-60 cells. In contrast, in the 9Z-derivatives, all analogs, except for the 13-butyl derivatives, showed apoptosis-inducing activity.

Abstract
Studies were performed in female Sprague-Dawley rats to determine the efficacy of a new RXR specific retinoid (9cUAB30) when combined with tamoxifen in the prevention of mammary cancers and to determine various pharmacokinetic parameters of the retinoid. When administered by gavage, 9cUAB30 was rapidly absorbed and had a serum t(1/2) of 13.5 h. Since the retinoid was administered in the diet for the chemoprevention study, a 28-day study in which 9cUAB30 was given at dose levels of 200, 400, and 600 mg/kg diet revealed fairly constant serum levels regardless of dose or length of treatment; possibly accounting for the observed low toxicity of this compound. When suboptimal doses of 9cUAB30 were given in the methylnitrosourea (MNU)-induced mammary cancer model, the following average number of mammary cancers were observed: 9cUAB30 (150 mg/kg diet), 4.3; tamoxifen (0.4 mg/kg diet), 4.6; 9cUAB30 (150 mg/kg diet)+tamoxifen (0.4 mg/kg diet), 2.6; and controls, 6.0. Thus, the combination of the agents resulted in an increased effect in preventing mammary cancers; suggesting that cancer cell proliferation was inhibited by the compounds blocking different pathways.

Abstract
Thermoanalytical (differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), thermogravimetric analysis coupled with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (TG/FTIR)) and spectroscopic (X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), mass spectrometry (MS) and Fourier transform infrared diffuse reflectance (DRIFT) measurements have been used to characterise solid-state retinoic acid (RA) from a chemico-physical point of view. Between 130 and 160 degrees C, a phase transition takes place that does not correspond to the transition between the known monoclinic and triclinic phases (DSC and XRD evidence). By annealing in air (in the 130-160 degrees C temperature range and for different times), an exothermic oxidative degradation occurs that, depending on the thermal treatment, competes with the mentioned phase transition (TGA evidence). Spectroscopic techniques (UV-Vis, MS and DRIFT) allow one to conclude that the new solid phase is still constituted by retinoic acid with a different orientation of the side chain. Finally, RA does not undergo stable melting: the fragmentation patterns, both in air and in nitrogen, have been examined by TG/FTIR.

Abstract
We recently synthesized several conformationally constrained retinoic acid (RA) analogues [8-(2'-cyclohexen-1'-ylidene)-3, 7-dimethyl-2,4,6-octatrienoic acids with different alkyl substituents at 2' (R1) and 3' (R2) positions on the cyclohexene ring] (Muccio et al. J. Med. Chem. 1996, 39, 3625) as cancer chemopreventive agents. UAB8 (R1 = Et; R2 = iPr), which contains sufficient steric bulk at the terminal end of the polyene chain to mimic the trimethylcyclohexenyl ring of RA, displayed biological properties similar to those of RA. To explore the efficacy of this retinoid in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML), we evaluated UAB8 isomers in in vitro assays which measure the capacity of retinoids to inhibit aberrant myeloid colony growth from blood or bone marrow cells obtained from human JMML patients and in assays measuring the potential of retinoids to differentiate NB4 cells (an APL cell line). Both (all-E)- and (13Z)-UAB8 were 2-fold more active than RA in the NB4 cell differentiation assay; however, only (all-E)-UAB8 had comparable activity to the natural retinoids in the JMML cell assays. These results were compared to the biological effectiveness of a new retinoid, UAB30 [8-(3', 4'-dihydro-1'(2'H)-naphthalen-1'-ylidene)-3,7-dimethyl-2,4, 6-octatrienoic acid], which had different nuclear receptor binding and transactivational properties than UAB8. Relative to (all-E)-RA and (all-E)-UAB8, (all-E)-UAB30 bound well to RARalpha but did not activate transcription-mediated RARalpha homodimers, even though it was effective in RARbeta- and RARgamma-mediated transactivational assays. In APL assays, this retinoid had much reduced activity and was only moderately effective in JMML assays and in cancer chemoprevention assays.

Abstract
The microsomal enzyme LRAT esterifies retinol and has been implicated in the hepatic storage of vitamin A. Previously, we showed that hepatic LRAT activity is negligible during vitamin A deficiency and that all-trans-retinoic acid (all-trans-RA) rapidly induces the activity of liver LRAT in retinoid-deficient rats. In the present studies, we have examined the ability of natural and synthetic retinoids to induce liver LRAT activity in retinoid-deficient rats. The natural retinoids retinol, all-trans-RA (100 microg), 9-cis-RA, or equal molar amounts of other retinoids were injected ip and LRAT specific activity was measured in liver homogenates 17-18 h later. In retinoid-deficient rats, liver LRAT activity was extremely low [0.13 +/- 0.03 pmol retinyl ester (RE)/min/mg liver protein, mean +/- SE]. The natural retinoids retinol and all-trans-RA strongly induced LRAT activity (12.71 +/- 1.09 and 13.10 +/- 1.55 pmol RE/min/mg, respectively), whereas 9-cis-RA induced a lower level of LRAT activity (3.96 +/- 1.88 pmol RE/min/mg, P < 0.001 vs all-trans-RA). The retinoic acid receptor (RAR)-selective analog (RAR pan-agonist) all-trans-UAB8 and the RAR-alpha-selective retinoid Am580 also strongly induced LRAT activity. In contrast, neither RXR-selective agonists nor retinoids having a retro structure were active. For retinoids with significant RAR-alpha binding activity there was a strong direct correlation between receptor binding in vitro and the ability to induce hepatic LRAT activity in vivo (r2 = 0.920). These data implicate the RARs in the induction of hepatic LRAT and suggest a predominant role for RAR-alpha-active ligands.

Abstract
We recently demonstrated that conformationally defined 6-s-trans-retinoic acid (RA) analogs were effective in the prevention of skin papillomas (Vaezi et al. J. Med. Chem. 1994, 37, 4499-4507) and selective agonists for nuclear receptor binding and activation (Alam et al. J. Med. Chem. 1995, 38, 2302-2310). In order to probe important structure-activity relationships, we evaluated a homologous series of four 6-s-trans-retinoids that are 8-(2'-cyclohexen-1'-ylidene)-3,7-dimethyl-2,4,6-octatrienoic acids with different substituents at 2' (R2) and 3' (R1) positions on the cyclohexene ring. UAB1 (R1 = R2 = H), UAB4 (R1 = R2 = Me), UAB7 (R1 = Me, R2 = iPr), and UAB8 (R1 = Et, R2 = iPr) contain alkyl R groups that mimic, to different extents, portions of the trimethylcyclohexenyl ring of RA. Both 9Z- and all-E-isomers of these retinoids were evaluated in binding assays for cellular retinoic acid-binding proteins (CRABP-I and CRABP-II), a nuclear retinoic acid receptor (RAR alpha), and a nuclear retinoid X receptor (RXR alpha). The all-E-isomers of UAB retinoids bound tightly to CRABPs and RAR alpha, the binding affinity of the all-E-isomer increased systematically from UAB1 to UAB8, and binding for the latter was comparable to that of all-E-RA. In contrast to RA, the (9Z)-UAB retinoids were at least 200-fold less active than the all-E-isomers in binding to RAR alpha. The (9Z)-UAB isomers exhibited increasingly stronger binding to RXR alpha, and (9Z)-UAB8 was nearly as effective as (9Z)-RA in binding affinity. The retinoids were also evaluated in gene expression assays mediated by RAR alpha and RXR alpha homodimers or RAR alpha/RXR alpha heterodimers. Consistent with the binding affinities, the (all-E)-UAB retinoids activated gene transciption mediated by RAR alpha homodimers or RAR alpha/RXR alpha heterodimers, while the (9Z)-UAB isomers activated only the RXR alpha homodimer-mediated transcription. The all-E- and 9Z-isomers of the UAB retinoids were further evaluated for their capacity to prevent the induction of mouse skin papillomas. When compared to RA, only the (all-E)-UAB retinoids containing bulky R1 and R2 groups were effective in this chemoprevention assay. (9Z)-RA displayed equal capacity as RA to prevent papillomas, while the 9Z-isomers of the UAB retinoids were much less effective. Taken together, these studies demonstrate that the cyclohexenyl ring substituents of 6-s-trans-UAB retinoids are important for their biological activities and that the chemopreventive effect of the all-E-isomers of these retinoids correlates well with their capacity to bind to RARs and activate RAR/RXR-mediated transcription.
