Abstract

The present invention relates to the use of at least one ligand which is specific for RXR receptors, in the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition to be administered systemically and intended to increase the cellular proliferation and/or differentiation modulatory activity of a ligand for at least one receptor of the superfamily of steroidal/thyroidal receptors, other than a ligand which is specific for the RXR receptors, and which can heterodimerize with the RXRs, which is applied topically.
