Retinoid compounds which act specifically or selectively on RAR.sub..alpha. receptor subtypes in preference over RAR.sub..beta. and RAR.sub..gamma. receptor subtypes, posses desirable pharmaceutical properties associated with retinoids, and are particularly suitable for treatment of tumors, such as acute monocytic leukemia, cervical carcinoma, myeloma, ovarian carcinomas and head and neck carcinomas, without having one or more undesirable side effects of retinoids, such as inducement of weight loss, mucocutaneous toxicity, skin irritation and teratogenecity.
对RAR.sub..alpha.受体亚型具有特异性或选择性作用,优先于RAR.sub..beta.和RAR.sub..gamma.受体亚型的视黄醇类化合物具有与视黄醇相关的理想药理特性,并特别适用于治疗肿瘤,如急性单核细胞白血病、宫颈癌、骨髓瘤、卵巢癌和头颈癌,而不会产生视黄醇的一个或多个不良副作用,如诱导体重减轻、粘膜皮肤毒性、皮肤刺激和致畸性。
