Product Description

Ethynodiol diacetate (Luteonorm, Luto-Metrodiol, Metrodiol, Continuin, Femulen, norethindrol diacetate), the diacetate ester form of ethynodiol, is one of the first synthetic steroidal progestogens used as a contraceptive drug.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) (< 1.5 μM) decreases the percentage of sister chronnatid exchanges (SCEs) in human lymphocyte culture treated with ethynodiol diacetate (150 μg/mL). Since the NDGA treatment, in the presence of S9 mix, reduce the genotoxic damage by ethynodiol diacetate, the reduction may be due to the inhibition of cytochrome P450s which prevents the metabolic activation of ethynodiol diacetate or NDGA may act as a free radical scavenger. Ethynodiol diacetate (150 μg/mL) increases sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) and chromosomal aberrations (CAs) frequencies and inhibits lymphocyte proliferation in the presence of S9 mix in human lymphocyte.

ln Vivo
Ethynodiol diacetate (6 mg/kg b.w. daily) significantly increases the amounts of excreted 3alpha-hydroxy-5alpha-pregnan-20-one and A-homo-3-oxa-5alpha-pregnane-4,20-dione in urine in female rats. Significant increase in the weights of pituitary, liver and kidneys are noted in rats treated with ethynodiol diacetate (6 mg/kg b.w. daily). Norgestrel (75 μg/day) and ethynodiol diacetate (150 μg/day), co-administered with ethinyl estradiol (7.5 μg/day), lowers the plasma concentrations of HDL cholesterol in cynomolgus monkeys.

Additional Infomation
Ethynodiol diacetate is a steroid ester and a terminal acetylenic compound. It has a role as an estrogen receptor modulator, a contraceptive drug and a synthetic oral contraceptive. It is functionally related to an ethynodiol.
A synthetic progestational hormone used alone or in combination with estrogens as an oral contraceptive. Although etynodiol or ethynodiol are sometimes used as a synonym for ethynodiol diacetate, what is usually being referred to is actually ethynodiol diacetate and not ethynodiol (which is a separate drug that has never been marketed, see [DB13866]).
Ethynodiol Diacetate is the diacetate salt form of ethynodiol, a semi-synthetic progestational hormone agonist. Ethynodiol diacetate binds to cytoplasmic progesterone receptors in the reproductive system and subsequently activates progesterone receptor mediated gene expression. As a result of the negative feedback mechanism, luteinizing hormone (LH) release is inhibited, which leads to an inhibition of ovulation and an alteration in the cervical mucus and endometrium. In addition, ethynodiol diacetate has weak oestrogenic and androgenic properties.
A synthetic progestational hormone used alone or in combination with estrogens as an oral contraceptive (CONTRACEPTIVES, ORAL).
Drug Indication
For the prevention of pregnancy in women who elect to use this product as a method of contraception.
Mechanism of Action
Binds to the progesterone and estrogen receptors. Target cells include the female reproductive tract, the mammary gland, the hypothalamus, and the pituitary. Once bound to the receptor, progestins like Ethynodiol Diacetate will slow the frequency of release of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus and blunt the pre-ovulatory LH (luteinizing hormone) surge.
Pharmacodynamics
Ethynodiol Diacetate is used as a female contraceptive. Ethynodiol Diacetate is a progestin or a synthetic form of the naturally occurring female sex hormone, progesterone. In a woman's normal menstrual cycle, an egg matures and is released from the ovaries (ovulation). The ovary then produces progesterone, preventing the release of further eggs and priming the lining of the womb for a possible pregnancy. If pregnancy occurs, progesterone levels in the body remain high, maintaining the womb lining. If pregnancy does not occur, progesterone levels in the body fall, resulting in a menstrual period. Ethynodiol Diacetate tricks the body processes into thinking that ovulation has already occurred, by maintaining high levels of the synthetic progesterone. This prevents the release of eggs from the ovaries.
