How can you use “retinoids” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

In the present study, we used a carcinogen-induced rat model of mammary carcinogenesis to test whether chemoprevention by tamoxifen and by two different retinoids (4-HPR, also known as fenretinide; and 9-cRA) is associated with local upregulation of TGF-βs in the initiated mammary gland.
Thus, part of the chemopreventive efficacy of antiestrogens and retinoids in this model may be due to a generalized decrease in ductal development.
Tamoxifen, alone or in combination with retinoids, decreased tumor incidence by more than 70% by the end of the study, whereas 9cRA alone decreased it by 50%.
Most of the previous studies on the regulation of TGF-βs by tamoxifen and retinoids have been done in tissue culture [ 12, 13, 14, 17].
Retinoids and tamoxifen were incorporated into powdered laboratory chow as described previously [ 18] and fed ad libitum , beginning 1 week after injection with NMU.
