Fenretinide (4-HPR) is a synthetic retinoic acid analog which acts primarily through inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and modulation of related signaling cascades Fenretinide induces apoptosis in various tumor cell lines such as prostate ovarian cervical endometrial breast small-cell lung carcinoma and malignant hematopoietic cells Mechanistically Fenretinide promotes apoptotic cell death through reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated DNA fragmentation and disrupts tumor cell migration and invasion via interference with the FAK/AKT/GSK3 signaling axis and destabilization of -catenin Fenretinide is frequently utilized as a chemopreventive agent in oncology research particularly for investigating mechanisms of growth inhibition and cell migration suppression
