Background The aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1) family comprises major enzymes that produce retinoic acid (RA) via the oxidation of all-trans retinal and 9-cis-retinal. The ALDH1A subfamily consists of three members, ALDH1A1, ALDH1A2, and ALDH1A3. ALDH1A2 is a rate-limiting enzyme involved in the cellular synthesis of retinoic acid, which has prodifferentiation properties. ALDH1A2 is a candidate tumor suppressor. Low ALDH1A2 expression was associated with an unfavorable prognosis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. ALDH1A2 suppresses epithelial ovarian cancer cell proliferation and migration by downregulating STAT3[1][2]. |
