## Abstract Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most prevalent form of epithelial cancer. SCC results when normal epithelial cells undergo multiple neoplastic changes that culminate in the evolution of an invasive cancer. Retinoids are commonly used as chemopreventive and treatment agents in skin
## Abstract It has been demonstrated that the chemopreventive agent __N__β(4βhydroxyphenyl)retinamide (4βHPR) induces apoptotic cell death, but recent data has suggested that late stage/recurrent tumours lose their response to 4βHPRβinduced cell death by mechanisms that are unknown. Our study inves
Melanoma is a highly malignant and increasingly common tumour. Since metastatic melanoma remains incurable, new treatment approaches are needed. Previously, we reported that the synthetic retinoid N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide (fenretinide, HPR) induces apoptosis in neuroblastoma cells, sharing a ne
