Description

ASP-9521 is a potent, selective and orally available AKR1C3 inhibitor with an IC50 of 11 nM for human AKR1C3.

IC50 & Target

IC50:11 nM (human AKR1C3), 49 nM (monkey AKR1C3)[1]

In Vitro

AKR1C3 is a promising therapeutic target in castrationresistant prostate cancer, as combination of an AKR1C3 inhibitor and a gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue may lead to complete androgen blockade.ASP-9521 inhibits conversion of androstenedione (AD) into androstenediol and testosterone (T) by recombinant human or cynomolgus monkey AKR1C3 in a concentrationdependent manner (IC50, human: 11 nM; IC50,monkey: 49 nM). ASP-9521 shows more than 100-fold selectivity for AKR1C3 over the isoform AKR1C2. In LNCaP-AKR1C3 cells, ASP-9521 suppresses AD-dependent PSA production and cell proliferation[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

In CWR22R xenografts, single oral administration of ASP-9521 (3 mg/kg) inhibits AD-induced intratumoural T production and this inhibitory effect is maintained for 24 h. After oral administration, ASP-9521is rapidly eliminated from plasma, while its intratumoural concentration remained high. The bioavailability of ASP-9521 after oral administration (1 mg/kg) is 35 %, 78 % and 58 % in rats, dogs and monkeys, respectively[1].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.57 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.57 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Cell Assay
[1]

LNCaP-AKR1C3 cells stably expressing human AKR1C3 are seeded in 96-well plates at 10000 cells/100 μL/well in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with heat-inactivated charcoal-dextran-stripped FBS (1 % for the PSA expression assay and T measurement and 5 % for the cell proliferation assay). After 24 h incubation, AD is added to each well with or without ASP-9521 (0.3-100 nM). The cell culture media are collected 24 h after administration of AD to measure T concentration and 6 days after administration of AD to measure cell proliferation using Cell-Titer Glo assay[1].

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice carrying HEK293 or HEK293-AKR1C3 tumours with similar sizes are selected and randomly divided into 5 groups (N=3 for each group). All groups are treated with ASP-9521 (single oral administration; 3 mg/kg). Plasma (from the central vein) and tumour tissues are collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 h after administration of ASP-9521, and ASP-9521 concentrations are determined using the HPLCMS/MS method[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
