Clear solution	5%DMSO 1 40%PEG300 2 5%Tween80 3 50%ddH2O	1.6mg/ml	Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 32 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results.
Clear solution	5% DMSO 1 95% Corn oil	0.8mg/ml	Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 16 mg/ml clear DMSO stock solution to 950 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results.

* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description	Etonogestrel (Implanon, Nexplanon, 3-Oxodesogestrel, 3-keto-Desogestrel) is a synthetic form of the naturally occurring female sex hormone progesterone. It binds to the cytoplasmic progesterone receptors in the reproductive system and subsequently activates progesterone receptor mediated gene expression.
In vitro	Etonogestrel induces FKBP51 mRNA and protein expression in cultured HESCs^[1].
In vivo	Etonogestrel (Implanon, Nexplanon, 3-Oxodesogestrel, 3-keto-Desogestrel) is a synthetic form of the naturally occurring female sex hormone progesterone.

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:^{^[2]}	Cell lines Human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) Concentrations 100 nM Incubation Time 7 days Method Thawed HESCs are grown to confluence in basal medium (BM), a phenol red-free 1:1 v/v mix of Dulbecco's MEM/Ham's F-12, with 100U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, 0.25 μg/ml fungizone complex supplemented with 10% charcoal-stripped calf serum. Confluent HESCs are incubated in parallel in BM with 0.1% ethanol (vehicle control) or 10nM E2(estradiol) or E2+100 nM P4(progesterone), or 100 nM of ETO(etonogestrel) or 100 nM of MPA(medroxyprogesterone acetate). After 7 days, the cultures are washed twice with 1X phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) to remove residual serum, then placed in a serum-free defined media (DM) comprising BM plus ITS+ (insulin, transferrin, selenious and linoleic acid) premix, 5 μM of FeSO4, 50 μM of ZnSO4, 1 nM of CuSO4, 20 nM of Na2SeO3 trace elements, 50 μg/ml of ascorbic acid and 50 ng/ml of recombinant epidermal growth factor for 24h. The cultures are washed twice with 1X PBS to remove the residual steroids and DM containing corresponding vehicle control or steroids is added to the cultures for 6h or 24h. At the end of incubation periods, HESCs are washed with ice-cold 1X PBS and stored at −70°C until used for total RNA and protein extraction.
