Medroxyprogesterone acetate (formerly NSC26386; NSC 26386; Medroxyprogesterone 17-acetate; MPA), the 17-ester form of Medroxyprogesterone, is a steroidal progestin and a synthetic variant of the human hormone progesterone. It is commonly used as a contraceptive, in hormone replacement therapy and for the treatment of endometriosis. Medroxyprogesterone acetate inhibits the enzyme 3-hydroxyste-roid dehydrogenase, involved in the reversible conversion between 5alpha-dihydroprogesterone and 3alpha, 5alpha-tetrahydroprogesterone.
ln Vitro |
In steroid-deprived HUVEC, medroxyprogesterone acetate (10 and 0.5 nM, 48 hours) suppresses eNOS expression [2]. Medroxyprogesterone acetate (10 and 0.5 nM, 16 hours) decreases the expression of endothelial adhesion molecules (VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 protein), which prevents leukocytes from adhering to human endothelial cells (steroid-deprived HUVEC) [2]. In steroid-deprived HUVEC, medroxyprogesterone acetate (10 and 0.5 nM, 2 hours) decreases NF-κB nuclear translocation [2].

ln Vivo |
AUC0- 2535.9 ng·h/mL, t1/2 of 10.2 hours, and Cmax of 377.9 ng/mL were observed in rats given 5 mg/kg of medroxyprogesterone acetate by gavage [3]. Over the course of 14 days, rats given oral medroxyprogesterone acetate (0.05-0.2 mg/kg/day) showed an increase in allopregesterone levels in all tissues except the adrenal gland and a change in β-END levels in the hippocampus [4].

*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.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution 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 stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
