Retinoid X receptor (RXR) agonists (rexinoids) are attracting much attention for their use in treatment of cancers, including tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer and taxol-resistant lung cancer, and metabolic disease. However, known RXR agonists have a highly lipophilic character. In addition, no subtype-selective RXR agonists have been found. The authors previously reported an RXRα-preferential agonist 4-[N-methanesulfonyl-N-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl) amino]benzoic acid. The RXR agonistic activity is much less than that of well-known RXR agonists. To develop potent, less-lipophilic, and subtype-selective RXR agonists, the authors created new RXR agonists possessing alkoxy and iso-Pr groups as a lipophilic domain of the common structure of well-known RXR agonists. As a result, compounds possessing branched alkoxy groups (I) and (II), showed RXR agonistic activity as potent as, or more potent than, the activities of representative RXR agonists. Moreover, I was the first RXRα/β-selective (or RXRα/β-dual) agonist. Being potent, less lipophilic, and having RXR subtype-selective activity, NEt-3IP I is expected to become a new drug candidate and to be a useful biol. tool for clarifying each RXR subtype function.
