Tretinoin

It is all-trans retinoic acid, the acid form of vitamin A that guides cell growth and maturation: it is applied to the skin for acne and, taken by mouth, treats acute promyelocytic leukaemia. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, metabolites, labelled standards and other impurities.

Did you know?In 1985 in Shanghai, Wang Zhenyi's group used it to treat a 5-year-old girl with promyelocytic leukaemia: instead of killing the diseased cells, it pushes them to mature into normal white blood cells.
