| Application: | BMS 493 has been used: • as an inhibitor for the dietary and pharmacologic manipulation of retinoic acid (RA) activity in vivo and in vitro • for human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) culture and ventricular cardiomyocytes (VCMs) differentiation • to inhibit retinoic acid (RA) signaling in explants • as a retinoic acid receptor (RAR) inhibitor for the induction of synaptonemal complex protein 3 (SCP3) and ATP-dependent RNA helicase (DDX4) in primordial germ cells (PGCs) |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | BMS 493 is an inverse pan-RAR agonist. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | BMS 493 is an inverse pan-RAR agonist. Retinoic acid receptors (RARs) are ligand-dependent transcription factors that control a number of physiological processes. RARs exert their functions by regulating gene networks controlling cell growth, differentiation, survival, and death. |
