Description

Ulipristal acetate (CDB-2914) is an orally active, selective progesterone receptor modulator (SPRM). Ulipristal acetate stimulates the autophagic response selectively in leiomyoma cells. Ulipristal acetate has the potential for benign gynecological conditions treatment, such as uterine myoma[1][2].

In Vitro

Ulipristal acetate (0.1-5 μM; 96 hours) stimulates autophagy in leiomyoma cells. Ulipristal-induced expression changes of the autophagic markers LC3 and p62/SQSTM1. Ulipristal up-regulates Atg7 protein in leiomyoma cells[2].
Ulipristal acetate blocks activin A modulation of fibronectin and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) mRNA expression in cultured myometrial and leiomyoma cells[4].

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

In Vivo

Ulipristal and CDB-4124 have significant antiprogestational activity in vivo[5].
Ulipristal acetate decreases incidences of fibroadenomas and adenocarcinomas in the mammary gland in all treated groups. Ulipristal acetate exposure [AUC(0-24h)] at the highest dose in rats is 67 times human therapeutic exposure at 10 mg/day. In mice, no tumor of any type increases at Ulipristal acetate exposures up to 313 times of therapeutic exposure. Ulipristal acetate-related findings in mice are limited to organ weight changes in the liver, pituitary, thyroid/parathyroid glands, and epididymis as well as minimal panlobular hepatocellular hypertrophy in male and female mice receiving 130 mg/kg/day[6].
Ulipristal acetate (1 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg) increases the frequency with which pathologists assessed the endometrium as being thickened compared to controls in a dose-dependent manner. There is a slight decrease in secretory differentiation with increasing dose of Ulipristal acetate, with small decreases in frequency of sub- and supra-nuclear vacuolation[7].

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 (5.26 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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.26 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 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 (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Animal Administration
[5]

The study consisted of four groups, each comprising four female cynomolgus monkeys. The groups eitherreceive ASV (control), or Ulipristal acetate at dose levels of 1, 5, or 25 mg/kg for 39 weeks. Two additional animals are allocated to the control and high dose groups for an 8-week post-dose recovery period. At randomization, there is no statistically significant difference between treatment groups in mean body weight. The vehicle or Ulipristal acetate is administered to all groups by oral gavage for 273 consecutive days at a dose volume of 2 mL/kg. Following the dosing or recovery period, animals are euthanized by intravenous administration of sodium pentobarbital followed by exsanguination of the femoral vessels.

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.
