Description: Isotretinoin (Accutane; Myorisan; Zenatane; 13-cis retinoic acid) is a topically used medication approved for the treatment of severe cystic acne. It was originally developed to be used as a chemotherapeutic drug for the treatment of various cancers such as brain cancer, pancreatic cancer etc. Isotretinoin directly interferes with the development of cranial neural crest cells. Isotretinoin selectively affects neural crest cells by decreasing their cell-substratum adhesion. Isotretinoin (500 ng/mL) and its main metabolite in the human, 4-oxo-isotretinoin, induce malformations similar to those seen in vivo.
