Vitamin K was discovered as an essential factor in blood coagulation in 1929. Subsequent research has reported the intricate metabolic pathway of the vitamin K cycle and has also revealed its diverse physiological roles beyond coagulation. In addition, warfarin, a vitamin K antagonist, has widely used as an anticoagulant drug worldwide. Our recent study has unveiled an additional physiological function of vitamin K, i.e., its role in inhibiting ferroptosis, a form of regulated cell death, through our study on cell death. Furthermore, in our study on the role of vitamin K in inhibiting ferroptosis, ferroptosis suppressor protein-1 (FSP1) has been identified to be warfarin-resistant vitamin K reductase, although the molecular identity of warfarin-resistant vitamin K reductase has not been clarified for over five decades despite its acknowledged existence. This finding has led to elucidation for the molecular mechanism underlying the antidotal effect of vitamin K against warfarin poisoning.

Various ethyl dihydroretionates were prepared by the conjugate reduction of β-ionylidenacetaldehydes and C-18 ketones using ethyldimethylsilyl hydride and subsequent Emmons-Horner reaction with C5- or C2-phosphonate. These esters were hydrolyzed to afford the corresponding dihydroretinoic acids and their biological activities were evaluated. Among the synthesized analogs, 8Z-7,10-dihydroretinoic acid showed higher transcriptional activities for the retinoid X receptor responsive element gene and for the RXRα-GAL4 expression gene than 9Z-retinoic acid (a natural ligand).
