Geranylgeranoic acid is an acyclic retinoid that is found naturally occuring in several traditional herbal medicines. Like many retinoids, geranylgeranoic acid plays a role in bone formation. It induces osteoblast differentiation and inhibits osteoclast formation both in vitro and in vivo. Geranylgeranoic acid has also been shown to induce apoptosis in some cell lines, including HuH-7, PLC/PRF-5 and MLE-10.
