Description

13-cis Retinoic acid-d₅ is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of 13-cis retinoic acid by GC- or LC-MS. 13-cis Retinoic acid is a naturally occurring retinoid that inhibits retinol oxidation and dehydrogenation of 17β-hydroxy steroids.

Uses

An endogenous retinoic acid isomer, which is capable of binding to both retinoic acid receptors (RAR) and retinoid X receptors (RXR). A biologically active ligand for members of the RAR and RXR subfamilies, implying that it may play a critical role in regulating retinoid-responsive pathways.
