Description

Degarelix acetate hydrate is a competitive and reversible gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRHR/LHRHR) antagonist. Degarelix acetate hydrate can be used for prostate cancer research[1].

In Vitro

Degarelix shows only very weak histamine-releasing properties and the lowest capacity for histamine release among the antagonists of LHRH, including Cetrorelix (HY-P0009), Abarelix (HY-13534), and Ganirelix (HY-P1628)[1].
Degarelix (1 nM-10 μM, 0-72 h) reduces cell viability in all prostate cell lines (WPE1-NA22, WPMY-1, BPH-1, VCaP cells), with the exception of the PC-3 cells[2].
Degarelix (10 μM, 0-72 h) exerts a direct effect on prostate cell growth through apoptosis[2].

Cell Viability Assay[2]

Cell Line: WPMY-1, WPE1-NA22, BPH-1, LNCaP and VCaP
Concentration: 1 nM-10 μM
Incubation Time: WPMY-1 cells at 48 and 72h, WPE1-NA22 cells at 72 hours, BPH-1 cells at 48 and 72h, LNCaP cells at 48 and 72h
Result: Reduced cell viability in all prostate cell lines, with the exception of the PC-3 cells.

Apoptosis Analysis[2]

Cell Line: WPE1-NA22, BPH-1, LNCaP and VCaP
Concentration: 10 μM
Incubation Time: 24, 48 and 72 h
Result: Induced a significant increase on caspase 3/7 activation.
In Vivo

Degarelix (0-10 μg/kg; s.c.; once) decreases plasma LH levels and plasma testosterone levels in a dose-dependent manner in castrated rats[3].
Degarelix is stable when incubated in microsomes and cryopreserved hepatocytes from animal liver tissue. In rat and dog, most of the degarelix dose is eliminated within 48 h via urine and feces in equal amounts (40–50% in each matrix), whereas in monkey the major route of excretion is fecal (50%) and renal (22%)[4].

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

Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats, castrated[3]
Dosage: 0.3, 1, 3 and 10 μg/kg or 12.5, 50, and 200 μg/kg
Administration: Subcutaneous injection, once
Result: Produced a dose-dependent and reversible decrease in plasma LH levels with a minimal effective dose of 3 μg/kg.
For the 50 μg/kg and 200 μg/kg doses, t1/2 of absorption values were 4 min and 30 min, Tmax values were 1 h and 5 h, and apparent plasma disappearance t1/2 values were 12 h and 67 h, respectively.
Produced a dose-dependent decrease in plasma testosterone levels with a minimal effective dose of 1 μg/kg.

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.
