AGN-191659 is an orally active RAR/RXR agonist with EC50 values of 11 nM, 23 nM, and 37 nM for RXRα, RARβ, and RARγ, respectively. AGN-191659 activates RXRα, RARβ and RARγ to induce gene transcription. AGN-191659 induces tissue transglutaminase activity, inhibits ornithine decarboxylase activity induced by tumor promoters, and suppresses chondrogenesis. AGN-191659 reverses basic fibroblast growth factor-induced endothelial cell proliferation. AGN-191659 induces hypertriglyceridemia in rat models. AGN-191659 inhibits total heparin-releasable lipase activity. AGN-191659 can be used in research related to promyelocytic leukemia and hypertriglyceridemia.
