Fenretinide (4-HPR) is a synthetic retinoid deriverative. Fenretinide is shown to exhibit binding to the retinoic acid receptors (RAR) at concentrations necessary to induce cell death. Retinoids are substances related to vitamin A. Fenretinide has been investigated for potential use in the treatment of cancer, as well as in the treatment of cystic fibrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, acne, psoriasis, and has been found to also slow the production and accumulation of a toxin that leads to vision loss in Stargardt's patients.
