Description

Fadrozole (CGS 16949A free base) is a potent, selective and nonsteroidal inhibitor of aromatase with an IC50 of 6.4 nM.

IC50 & Target

Aromatase

 

In Vitro

Fadrozole hydrochloride is a very potent inhibitor of both human placental and rat ovarian aromatase. In hamster ovarian slices, fadrozole hydrochloride inhibits the production of estrogen with an IC50 of 0.03 μM. The production of progesterone is inhibited with an IC50 of 120 μM. Synthesis of other cytochrome P-450 dependent steroids can be suppressed to various degrees with higher doses of fadrozole hydrochloride. [1].

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

In Vivo

Fadrozole hydrochloride is able to inhibit the aromatase-mediated androstenedione-induced uterine hypertrophy in immature female rats with an ED50 of 0.03 mg/kg when given orally. In the same model, aminoglutethimide elicits the same effect with an ED50 of 30 mg/kg when given orally[1]. Fadrozole hydrochloride prevents the development of both benign and malignant spontaneus mammary neoplasns in female Sprague-Dawley rats. It also slows the spontaneous development of ptuitary pars dta mas in female rats, and reduces the of spontaneous hcu ar tumours in male and female rats[2]. Administration of fadrozole in male and female mice suppresses the production of 17b-estradiol, accompanied with a 70% reduction in parasite burden. This protective effect is associated in male mice with a recovery of the specific cellular immune response. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) serum levels, and its production by splenocytes, is augmented by 80%, together with a 10-fold increase in its expression in testes of infected male mice. Fadrozole treatment returns these levels to baseline values[3].

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: ≥ 2.17 mg/mL (9.72 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.17 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (21.7 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: ≥ 2.17 mg/mL (9.72 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.17 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (21.7 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.

Animal Administration
[2][3]

Rats: Rats are treated with daily dosing with fadrozole hydrochloride (CGS 16949A) in purified water by gavage for 2 years. There are 60 rats in each of four groups given 0, 0.05, 0.25 or 1.25 mg/kg daily. Control rats receive only water. Clinical signs are recorded weekly and the animals are examine for palpable masses every 4 weeks for the first 9 months, then every 2 weeks for the remainder of the study[2].

Mice: Fadrozole is administered in the form of sub-dermal long-term release pellets (20 mg/wt kg, in three-week-release pellets), starting 1 week prior to the infection, using a 10-gauge needle. Three pellets are administrated during the study. Placebo pellets are administered to another group of infected mice, in the same fashion as the inhibitor. After 1 week, mice are infected and killed 8 weeks later[3].

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.
