In this study, adapalene, a third-generation retinoid usually used to treat acne vulgaris, was selected as a potent c-MYC inhibitor as it robustly bound to c-MYC with a lowest binding energy (LBE) of −7.27 kcal/mol, a predicted inhibition constant (pKi) of 4.69 μM, and a dissociation constant (Kd value) of 3.05 μM. This evidence concerns the gene MYC and acne.
