Notes: LG 100268 is an agonist of retinoid X receptors (RXRs; Kd = 3 nM).{20758} It is selective for RXRs over retinoic acid receptors (RARs; Kd = >10,000 nM).{36450} In vitro, LG 100268 (1 µM) induces apoptosis in HL-60 human leukemia cells when used in combination with TTNPB (Item No. 16144).{20758} LG 100268 (100, 300, and 1,000 nM) dose-dependently inhibits COX-2 expression and increases ATP-binding cassette transporter (ABCA1) levels in macrophage-like RAW 264.7 cells.{36451} In vivo, it inhibits vinyl carbamate-induced lung tumor growth in mice when administered at a dose of 40 mg/kg.
