Biological Activity
SARM[1]
LGD-3303 is a nonsteroidal, nonaromatizable androgen receptor ligand that binds to the androgen receptor with high affinity in a radiolabeled to competitive binding assay (Ki=0.9 nM). LGD-3303 binds to the mineralocorticoid, glucocorticoid, and progesterone receptors with greatly reduces affinity in comparison with the androgen receptor (Ki=1261, 581, and 136 nM, respectively). LGD-3303 potently activates transcription through the androgen receptor (EC50=3.6 nM) and has 134% efficacy relative to the steroidal androgen Dihydrotestosterone (DHT)[1].

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 10.42 mg/mL (30.40 mM; ultrasonic and warming and heat to 60°C; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: 1.04 mg/mL (3.03 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a suspended solution of 1.04 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (10.4 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.

Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
In vitro binding is determined using recombinant baculovirus expressed human androgen receptor (hAR), human glucocorticoid receptor (hGR), human mineralocorticoid receptor (hMR), or human progesterone receptor (hPR). Tritium-labeled reference ligand is used with varying concentrations of LGD-3303 as a competing ligand. Inhibition constant (Ki) values are calculated by application of the Cheng-Prusoff equation. Reporter assays are performed. Briefly, CV1 cells are cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% charcoal resin-stripped fetal bovine serum (FBS), and seeded 48 h before transfection in 96-well microtiter plates. Cells are transiently transfected using a nonliposomal formulation, the FuGENE 6 transfection reagent, with luciferase reporter plasmids MMTV-LUC or MTV-ERE5-LUC, a β-galactosidase (β-Gal) expression plasmid coding for the constitutive expression of Escherichia coli β-galactosidase, and hAR, hGR, hMR, hPR, or human estrogen receptor α (pRShERα) expression plasmids. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of LGD-3303 or reference compound for 40 h. The normalized luciferase response is calculated as relative luciferase units/(β-gal O.D415/β-Gal incubation time in minutes). The effective concentration that produces 50% of the maximum response (EC50) is determined, and agonist efficacy is calculated as a percent of normalized luciferase response relative to the maximum response by the reference agonist (i.e., DHT for hAR, dexamethasone for hGR, aldosterone for hMR, progesterone for hPR-B, or 17β-estradiol for hERα)[1].

Rats[2]
Male Sprague-Dawley rats (7-8 weeks old, 200 g) are used. Rats are sorted by weight, assigned to experimental groups (n=5/group), and surgery is performed. Experimental groups consist of LGD-3303 (doses ranged from 0.1-300 mg/kg/day) or vehicle. LGD-3303 is administered by once daily oral gavage in a volume of 4 mL/kg. On the 14th day, blood is collected into lithium heparin tubes by jugular puncture at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 6 h postdosing from the animals in the high-dose groups. Blood is centrifuged, and plasma is stored at -20°C for pharmacokinetic analysis. On the 15th day, rats are killed by decapitation, and trunk blood is collected, allowed to clot in serum separator tubes, and centrifuged, and serum is stored at -80°C for future analysis of serum luteinizing hormone (LH) levels. The wet weights of the ventral prostate, levator ani muscle, and preputial gland are measured at necropsy[2].
