CD 437 is a synthetic, cell-permeable, retinoid-related molecule that induces tumor growth arrest and apoptosis. The exact molecular basis of the underlying mechanism(s) is not yet well understood, however, studies using ovarian adenocarcinoma cells have shown that CD437/AHPN effectively functions as an ER stress inducer. CD 437 is an activator of RAR γ.A cell-permeable retinoid-related molecule tumor growth arrest and apoptosis inducer CD 437 is a synthetic, cell-permeable, retinoid-related molecule that induces tumor growth arrest and apoptosis.
