  • Methods for treating retinoid responsive disorders using selective inhibitors of CYP26A and CYP26B
    Publication number: 20050187298
    Abstract: The invention provides methods for treating an individual having a retinoid responsive disorder. In one embodiment, a method involves administering to the individual an effective amount of a selective CYP26B inhibitor, the selective CYP26B inhibitor having at least 10-fold selectivity for CYP26B relative to CYP26A. In another embodiment, a method involves administering to the individual an effective amount of a selective CYP26A inhibitor, the selective CYP26A inhibitor having a chemical formula set forth in the specification. The invention further provides screening methods for identifying a selective CYP26A inhibitor or selective CYP26B inhibitor.
