Adapalene is a third-generation topical retinoid, it is a potent RAR agonist, with AC50 values of 2.3 nM, 9.3 nM, and 22 nM for RARβ, RARγ, RARα, respectively. Adapalene inhibits the viability of ES-2, HOV-7, MCF-7 , Hela, SW1990, HT1080, and MM-468 cells, with IC50s of 10.36 μM, 10.81 μM, 12.00 μM, 19.08 μM, 19.52 μM, 21.70 μM, and 31.47 μM, respectively Adapalene also inhibits the enzymatic activity of GOT1 in a non-competitive manner. Adapalene inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in colorectal cancer cell in vitro.
In vivo, Adapalene (15-100 mg/kg; p.o. daily for 21 days) inhibits the growth of DLD1 cell-derived xenograft tumors in BALB/C nude mice.
