Disease relevance of Promegestone

 

High impact information on Promegestone

  • [(3)H]Promegestone crosslinking to TAT-CRAC could be displaced by cholesterol and promegestone, with IC50 values of 1 and 200 microM, respectively [6].
  • For AChRs in the presence of agonist (desensitized state) promegestone was a more potent inhibitor of the binding of the noncompetitive antagonist [3H]phencyclidine (IC50 = 9 microM) than of [3H]histrionicotoxin (IC50 approximately 100 microM) [7].
  • Between 1-30 microM promegestone produced a concentration-dependent enhancement of the equilibrium binding affinity of [3H]ACh to Torpedo AChR-rich membranes [7].
  • In vitro cultures of proliferative endometrium treated with the synthetic progestagen R 5020 or with RU 486 also had increased E2-DH activity; RU 486 counteracted R 5020 effects [8].
  • In T47DCO cells, 10(-8) M DMA and other 19-norandrogens stimulated transcription of a progestin/glucocorticoid/androgen response element-thymidine kinase-luciferase reporter plasmid to the same extent as R5020, the potent progestin promegestone (EC50, approximately 10(-9) M), but C-19 androgens had no effect [9].
