Tretinoin, a retinoid, is the acid form of vit A. Topically, it decreases cohesiveness of follicular epithelial cells by stimulating mitosis and turnover. This causes extrusion of existing comedones and preventing formation of new ones. Additionally, it has a thinning effect on the stratum corneum. Systemically, it induces cellular differentiation and decreases proliferation of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells.
