Biological Activity

Description MPA (Medroxyprogesterone acetate) is a synthetic progestin and act as a potent progesterone receptor agonist, used to treat abnormal menstruation or irregular vaginal bleeding.
Targets
progestogen Receptor [1]
In vitro
In vitro

Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) inhibits the enzyme 3-hydroxyste-roid dehydrogenase, involved in the reversible conversion between 5alpha-dihydroprogesterone (DHP) and 3alpha, 5alpha-tetrahydroprogesterone (THP), and therefore may affect the local actions of DHP and THP in the brain. [1]

Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) reduces secretion of IL-6 and PTHrP from human breast cancer cells. MPA dose-dependently decreases the secretion and mRNA expression of IL-6 and PTHrP in the KTC-2 cells. [2]

Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) and dexamethasone dose dependently increases alpha-ENaC promoter-driven luciferase activity in M-1 cells, which is not inhibited by Org31710, indicating that Medroxyprogesterone acetate regulates alpha-ENaC in a PR-independent manner. Medroxyprogesterone acetate and dexamethasone, but not progesterone, dose dependently increases alpha-ENaC and sgk1 mRNA in M-1 and in Madin-Darby canine kidney-C7 cells, both collecting duct cell lines. [3]

Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) (0.1 nM) significantly enhances the in vitro production of specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies, an effect that appears to involve the interaction of the progestin with PRG receptors[4]

Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) impairs delayed memory retention on the water radial-arm maze (WRAM), and exacerbates overnight forgetting on the Morris maze (MM) in aged ovariectomized (OVX) rats. Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) significantly and progesterone marginally decreases GAD levels in the hippocampus, and both MPA and progesterone significantly increases GAD levels in the entorhinal cortex.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
