Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes. The RAR/RXR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. The high affinity ligand for RXRs is 9-cis retinoic acid. RXRA serves as a common heterodimeric partner for a number of nuclear receptors. The RXR/RAR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. In the absence of ligand, the RXR-RAR heterodimers associate with a multiprotein complex containing transcription corepressors that induce histone acetylation, chromatin condensation and transcriptional suppression. On ligand binding, the corepressors dissociate from the receptors and associate with the coactivators leading to transcriptional activation. The RXRA/PPARA heterodimer is required for PPARA transcriptional activity on fatty acid oxidation genes such as ACOX1 and the P450 system genes. Publication Abstract from PubMed The retinoid X receptors (RXR) are ligand-activated transcription factors involved in multiple regulatory networks as universal heterodimer partners for nuclear receptors. Despite their high therapeutic potential in many pathologies, targeting of RXR has only been exploited in cancer treatment as the currently available RXR agonists suffer from exceptional lipophilicity, poor pharmacokinetics (PK), and adverse effects. Aiming to overcome the limitations and to provide improved RXR ligands, we developed a new potent RXR ligand chemotype based on the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug oxaprozin. Systematic structure-activity relationship analysis enabled structural optimization toward low nanomolar potency similar to the well-established rexinoids. Cocrystal structures of the most active derivatives demonstrated orthosteric binding, and in vivo profiling revealed superior PK properties compared to current RXR agonists. The optimized compounds were highly selective for RXR activation and induced RXR-regulated gene expression in native cellular and in vivo settings suggesting them as excellent chemical tools to further explore the therapeutic potential of RXR.
