    Product Information Galeterone Item No. 17586 N CAS Registry No.: 851983-85-2 Formal Name: 17-(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)-androsta- 5,16-dien-3β-ol N Synonym: TOK-001 MF: C26H32N2O FW: 388.6 H Purity: ≥98% H H Stability: ≥2 years at -20°C Supplied as: A crystalline solid HO Laboratory Procedures For long term storage, we suggest that galeterone be stored as supplied at -20°C. It should be stable for at least two years. Galeterone is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the galeterone in the solvent of choice. Galeterone is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF), which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of galeterone in ethanol and DMSO is approximately 20 mg/ml and approximately 30 mg/ml in DMF. Galeterone is sparingly soluble in aqueous buffers. For maximum solubility in aqueous buffers, galeterone should first be dissolved in DMF and then diluted with the aqueous buffer of choice. Galeterone has a solubility of approximately 0.2 mg/ml in a 1:3 solution of DMF:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. The cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP17 is also known as steroid 17α-hydroxylase/17,20 lyase because it catalyzes both 17α-hydroxylase and 17,20 lyase reactions in the synthesis of steroids, including androgens, estrogens, glucocorticoids, 1 and mineralocorticoids. Galeterone is a CYP17 inhibitor (IC50 = 300 nM) that has been shown to competitively block synthetic androgen binding (EC50 = 845 nM) and to antagonize the androgen receptor in transcriptional activation 2 assays.

Received: 4 November 2019; Accepted: 18 December 2019; Published: 23 December 2019 Abstract: Prostate cancer is the mostly commonly diagnosed non-cutaneous malignancy and the second leading cause of cancer-related death affecting men in the United States. Moreover, it disproportionately affects the men of African origin, who exhibit significantly greater incidence and mortality as compared to the men of European origin. Since androgens play an important role in the growth of normal prostate and prostate tumors, targeting of androgen signaling has remained a mainstay for the treatment of aggressive prostate cancer. Over the years, multiple approaches have been evaluated to effectively target the androgen signaling pathway that include direct targeting of the androgens, androgen receptor (AR), AR co-regulators or other alternate mechanisms that impact the outcome of androgen signaling.

  • Development of Combination Therapy for Prostate Cancer
    DEVELOPMENT OF COMBINATION THERAPY FOR PROSTATE CANCER A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Alexander R. Root July 2017 © 2017 Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences ALL RIGHTS RESERVED DEVELOPMENT OF COMBINATION THERAPY FOR PROSTATE CANCER Alexander R. Root, Ph.D. Cornell University 2017 There is an unmet need in prostate cancer for effective therapies to prevent the emergence of resistance. Combinations of small molecules targeting key pathways are a promising strategy. I investigated how populations of the early metastatic prostate cancer cell line LNCaP respond at the proteomic and pheno- typic levels to six clinically-relevant, one-drug treatments and their 15 pairs of two-drug combinations, administered simultaneously to treatment-naive cells. After 24 hours of drug addition for all 21 drug treatments I measured 52 total- proteins by selected-reaction monitoring mass-spectrometry based proteomics (SRM), 20 phospho-proteins, and 50 total-proteins by reverse-phase protein ar- rays (RPPA). I measured phenotypic effects on cell proliferation and apoptosis in all conditions using phase-contrast and fluorescence microscopy. Network analysis identified (phospho)-proteins with large responses to drug treatments that are druggable with FDA-approved drugs or have nearest-neighbors that are druggable. A total of ten drugs targeting these nearest responder (phospho)-proteins were tested in single, double, and triple combinations. I found that 7 out of 10 triple combinations co-targeting androgen receptor and PI3K pathways were no more effective than the two-drug combination at the doses tested: PRKC (en- zastaurin), MAPK (losmapimod), STAT3 (napabucasin), HDAC (panobinostat), SRC (saracatinib), casein kinase (silmitasertib), MAPK (ulixertinib).

  • Metabolic Enzyme/Protease
    Inhibitors, Agonists, Screening Libraries www.MedChemExpress.com Metabolic Enzyme/Protease Metabolic pathways are enzyme-mediated biochemical reactions that lead to biosynthesis (anabolism) or breakdown (catabolism) of natural product small molecules within a cell or tissue. In each pathway, enzymes catalyze the conversion of substrates into structurally similar products. Metabolic processes typically transform small molecules, but also include macromolecular processes such as DNA repair and replication, and protein synthesis and degradation. Metabolism maintains the living state of the cells and the organism. Proteases are used throughout an organism for various metabolic processes. Proteases control a great variety of physiological processes that are critical for life, including the immune response, cell cycle, cell death, wound healing, food digestion, and protein and organelle recycling. On the basis of the type of the key amino acid in the active site of the protease and the mechanism of peptide bond cleavage, proteases can be classified into six groups: cysteine, serine, threonine, glutamic acid, aspartate proteases, as well as matrix metalloproteases. Proteases can not only activate proteins such as cytokines, or inactivate them such as numerous repair proteins during apoptosis, but also expose cryptic sites, such as occurs with β-secretase during amyloid precursor protein processing, shed various transmembrane proteins such as occurs with metalloproteases and cysteine proteases, or convert receptor agonists into antagonists and vice versa such as chemokine conversions carried out by metalloproteases, dipeptidyl peptidase IV and some cathepsins. In addition to the catalytic domains, a great number of proteases contain numerous additional domains or modules that substantially increase the complexity of their functions.

  • DHEA, the Most Abundant Steroid Hormone in the Body
    CHAPTER 50 DHEA, the most abundant steroid hormone in the body: inhibits glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, inhibits the generation of NADPH, activates the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and increases oxidative phosphorylation, increases oxidative stress, polarizes the immune system to M1/Th1, inhibits the pathway PI3K/Akt and decreases proliferation and increases apoptosis in cancer José de Felippe Junior DHEA: substance synthesized in the body with multiple actions – Plasma DHEA-sulphate declines from a peak at age maintain health, prevent diseases and help to heal them.
