Retinoids are promising agents for the prevention and treatment of several human malignancies including lung cancer. However, many lung cancer cell lines are resistant to the growth inhibitory effects of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA). Recently, we found that a new synthetic retinoid, 6-[3-(1-adaman

## Abstract Allβtransβretinoic acid (ATRA) has been shown to inhibit the growth of a number of ovarian tumor cell lines while others have been found to be resistant to retinoid suppression of growth. Interestingly, two synthetic retinoids, CD437 and 4βHPR, inhibit the growth of both ATRAβsensitive
The natural ligands of the nuclear receptors vitamin D receptor (VDR) and retinoic acid receptor (RAR), i.e., 1β£,25dihydroxyvitamin D 3 (VD) and all-trans retinoic acid, have important effects on the proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis of a variety of malignant cells, including melanoma. Th
## Abstract Stress protein mortalin (mtHSP70) is highly expressed in cancer cells. It was shown to contribute to carcinogenesis by sequestrating the wild type p53, a key tumor suppressor protein, in the cytoplasm resulting in an abrogation of its transcriptional activation function. We have found t
