Description

Irosustat is a potent steroid sulfatase inhibitor, with an IC50 of 8 nM, and exhibits anti-breast cancer activity.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 8 nM (Steroid sulfatase)[1], 0.2 nM (Steroid sulfatase, MCF-7 cells)[2]

In Vitro

Irosustat (667 COUMATE) is a potent steroid sulfatase inhibitor, with an IC50 of 8 nM[1]. Irosustat (667 COUMATE) inhibits steroid sulphatase (STS) activity in MCF-7 cells with an IC50 of 0.2 nM, but has no effect on the morphology or proliferation of MCF-7 cells at 10 μM[2].

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

In Vivo

Irosustat potently inhibits rat liver, with inhibition of >90% when at a 1 mg/kg concentration. Irosustat (2 mg/kg, p.o. for 5 d) blocks the uterine growth stimulated by oestrone sulfate (E1S) in ovariectomized rats. In addition, Irosustat (2, 10 mg/kg, p.o.) plus E1S dose-dependently decreases the growth of NMU-induced mammary tumors in ovariectomized rats[1]. Irosustat (667 COUMATE; 10 mg/kg, p.o.) shows 97.9 ± 0.06% inhibition on steroid sulphatase (STS) activity in rat liver[2].

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 (8.08 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 (8.08 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.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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:  50% PEG300    50% Saline

    Solubility: 25 mg/mL (80.82 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  20% SBE-β-CD in Saline

    Solubility: 2 mg/mL (6.47 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic

Cell Assay
[2]

MCF-7 cells are cultured in growth medium (minimum essential medium (MEM) containing, phenol red, 10% foetal calf serum (FCS) and essential nutrients). When the cells reach 60% confluency, they are treated with Irosustat (0.001-10 μM) in growth medium. After 72 h of incubation, photographs are taken under normal conditions of light and the number of attached cells in each flask is determined using a Coulter cell counter[2].

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

Animal Administration
[1]

Rats[1]
Ludwig rats bearing mammary tumors are used in the assay. Tumor development is monitored, and animals are ovariectomized when tumors reach 0.8-1.5 cm in diameter. Tumors are allowed to regress over a 12- to 13-day period to confirm their hormone-dependent status. Regrowth of tumors is stimulated with oestrone sulfate (E1S; 50 μg/day, s.c.). When tumors have regrown, animals continue to receive either E1S alone or E1S plus Irosustat at 10 mg/kg/day or 2 mg/kg/day, p.o., until tumor regression has occurred. Tumor volumes are calculated from two measured diameters[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.
