Biological Activity
RU58841 is a non-steroidal anti-androgen that acts as a specific antagonist of the androgen receptor (AR). By selectively binding to the AR, RU58841 blocks endogenous androgen interactions, preventing receptor activation and downstream transcriptional signaling pathways. This inhibition reduces androgen-induced responses, suppressing sebaceous gland development and hair loss in preclinical models of androgenetic alopecia. [1]

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).

Pre-aliquoted for Longevity: Solid-state aliquots offer longer shelf life compared to stock solutions.
