Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Enzalutamide is an androgen receptor (AR) antagonist that competitively blocks androgen binding to the androgen receptor. It prevents AR nuclear translocation, impairs DNA binding, and inhibits co-activator recruitment of the ligand-receptor complex. This blockade disrupts AR-mediated signaling pathways, suppressing cellular proliferation, inducing apoptosis, and increasing autophagy in prostate cancer cells without displaying agonist activity.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
