Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of Indene Derivatives as Retinoic Acid Receptor α Agonists

A series of novel indene-derived retinoic acid receptor α (RARα) agonists have been designed and synthesized. The use of receptor binding, cell proliferation and cell differentiation assays demonstrated that most of these compounds exhibited moderate RARα binding activity and potent antiproliferativ...
