Product Description

Bicalutamide (formerly known as ICI-176334; CDX; trade names: Casodex in the USA and Cosudex in other countries), a marketed drug for treating PC (prostate cancer), is a potent, synthetic, nonsteroidal androgen receptor (AR) antagonist with potential anticancer activity. It inhibits AR with an IC50 of 0.16 μM in LNCaP/AR(cs)cell line. Bicalutamide inhibits the growth of prostate cancer cells which overexpress androgen receptor by directly binding to AR then mediates androgen-mediated gene transcription. Bicalutamide directly binds to androgen receptor with Ki value of 12.5μM. In prostate cancer cells, bicalutamide impairs DNA binding and nuclear localization. Bicalutamide and MDV3100 significantly inhibited R1881-induced VP16-AR–mediated transcription in HepG2 cells with an IC50 value of 0.2 μM.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Bicalutamide has an IC50 of 160 nM and competes with androgens for binding to AR in a whole-cell binding experiment (LNCaP/AR (cs) cells) [1]. Bicalutamide partially counteracts the effects of R1881, a synthetic androgen, while inducing VCaP cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner [1].
ln Vivo
In a mouse model of prostate cancer, belicutamide (10 mg/kg; ig; daily; for 28 days) shows anticancer efficacy [1].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Castrate male mice, bearing LNCaP/AR(cs) xenograft tumors[1]
Doses: 10 mg/kg
Route of Administration: po (oral gavage), daily, for 28 days
Experimental Results: Inhibited tumor growth.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box

Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
