Description

Prochloraz is an imidazole antifungal. Prochloraz is as an estrogen receptor (ER) and androgen receptor (AR) antagonist and an aromatase inhibitor with IC50 values of 25 μM, 4 μM and 0.3 μM, respectively. Prochloraz is able to activate the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) having an EC50 of 1 μM[1][2].

IC50 & Target

IC50: 25 μM (Estrogen receptor), 4 μM (Androgen receptor) and 0.3 μM (Aromatase)[2]
EC50: 1 μM (Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR))[2]

In Vitro

Prochloraz has a strong inhibition of the microsomal cytochrome P-450 dependent 14α-demethylation of lanosterol during ergosterol biosynthesis, which leads to membrane disruption and eventually to cell death[1].

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

In Vivo

In vivo Prochloraz acts as an antiandrogen in the Hershberger assay by reducing weights of reproductive organs, affecting androgen-regulated gene expressions in the prostate and increasing luteinizing hormone levels. In order to investigate the developmental effects of Prochloraz, pregnant Wistar dams were dosed perinatally with 30 mg/kg Prochloraz. Results show that Prochloraz significantly reduces plasma and testicular testosterone levels in gestational day 21 male foetuses, whereas testicular progesterone was increased. Gestational length is increased by Prochloraz[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    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.52 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.52 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

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.
