Fenretinide is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of fenretinide (Item No. 17688) by GC- or LC-MS. Fenretinide is a synthetic derivative of retinoic acid (Item No. 11017) and an inhibitor of dihydroceramide desaturase (IC50 = 2.32 µM).{39681} It promotes the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the degradation of anti-apoptotic MCL-1, and the cleavage of pro-apoptotic PKCδ.{22943} At 5-20 µM, fenretinide selectively activates retinoic acid receptor γ (RARγ) and is reported to inhibit the growth of Caov-3, OVCAR-3, and SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells with IC50 values of 3.7, 6.9, and 8.2 µM, respectively.{24737,17895} It also increases activity of serine palmitoyl transferase (SPT) by 1.75-fold and induces caspase-dependent apoptosis in BMEC cells (IC50 = 2.4 µM).{12547} Fenretinide prevents lipid-induced reductions in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in isolated rat soleus muscle.{39682} In vivo, fenretinide (10 mg/ml in drinking water) reduces liver and soleus muscle neutral lipid content and inhibits high-fat diet-induced increases in dihydroceramide desaturase transcription.{39682}
