Phytol is an activator of retinoid X receptors (RXRs) [1,2].The retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are nuclear receptors activated by 9-cis retinoic acid. RXRs are members of the steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily of DNA binding nuclear hormone receptors. The RXRs are cofactors required for transcription activated by some other members of the steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily, including the all-truns retinoic acid, vitamin D, thyroid hormone, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors. Some RXR null mutations in mice show phenotypic effects similar to vitamin A deficiency. Retinoids, metabolites of vitamin A, act as signalling molecules in embryogenesis and as stimulators of cellular differentiation. The retinoids has been successfully used in treating skin diseases and some forms of cancer [3]. Other sizes are also available. Please inqury us for quote.
