Product Description
MPP diHCl is a potent and specific ER (estrogen receptor) modulator. MPP diHCl causes apoptosis in endometrial cancer and oLE cells. MPP diHCl reverses the positive effects of beta-estrogens. In vivo, MPP diHCl has mixed agonist and antagonist effects on mouse uterine ERalpha.
MPP dihydrochloride is a highly selective, high affinity silent antagonist of estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha). With a chemical name of 4-(1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4-methyl-5-(4-(2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethoxy)phenyl)-1H-pyrazol-3(2H)-ylidene)cyclohexa-2,5-dienone dihydrochloride, molecular formula C29H31N3O3·2HCl, and molecular weight 542.5, this compound is widely used as a pharmacological tool to study ERalpha-mediated signaling pathways.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
MPP dihydrochloride specifically targets estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) with high affinity, displaying over 200-fold selectivity for ERalpha over ERbeta. It binds to the ligand-binding domain of ERalpha, acting as a silent antagonist that prevents receptor activation and subsequent transcriptional activity. The compound does not exhibit any detectable agonist activity at physiological concentrations.
ln Vitro
MPP dihydrochloride (1, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 μM; 24 hours) has an IC50 value of 20.01 μM, which lowers the viability of RL95-2 cells [1]. 10 μM of MPP dihydrochloride in RL95-2 MPP dihydrochloride (20 μM; 24 h) decreases phosphorylation of ERα but does not change phosphorylation of Akt. The phosphorylation of p-ERα/ERα is decreased by MPP dihydrochloride [1]. demonstrates anti-proliferative properties in cells [1].
In primary hippocampal cells, MPP dihydrochloride at concentrations ranging from 1 pM to 1 microM has been studied for its effects on neuroprotection. It is used to block ERalpha-dependent pathways in cell survival assays. When used alone or in combination with other compounds, it helps dissect the relative contributions of ERalpha versus ERbeta in various cellular processes, including oxidative stress protection and cell survival.
ln Vivo
Prepulse index (PPI) is attenuated in a dose-dependent manner by MPP dihydrochloride (20 μg/kg or 200 μg/kg) [2].
No specific in vivo activity data is available for MPP dihydrochloride alone. In animal studies, it is typically used as a tool to antagonize ERalpha signaling to study estrogen-dependent physiological processes. It has been used in studies of neuroprotection, where inhibition of ERalpha helps identify receptor subtype-specific contributions to estrogen-mediated effects in the brain.
Enzyme Assay
For in vitro receptor binding assays: Incubate ERalpha protein with radiolabeled estradiol (3H-E2) at 0.5-2 nM in binding buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, 1 mM EDTA, 10% glycerol, pH 7.4). Add varying concentrations of MPP dihydrochloride (0.1 nM to 10 uM). Incubate at 4degC overnight. Separate bound from free radioligand by charcoal dextran precipitation or filtration. Count radioactivity by scintillation. Calculate Ki and IC50 values by nonlinear regression. For ERalpha antagonist activity assays, use a luciferase reporter system with an estrogen response element (ERE).
Cell Assay
Viability assay[1]
Cell Types: RL95-2 endometrial cancer cells
Tested Concentrations: 1, 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 µM
Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: 25 µM, 50 µM and 100 µM After 24 hrs (hours) of treatment Cell viability diminished Dramatically. However, MPP dihydrochloride at concentrations below 25 µM did not Dramatically alter cell viability.

Cell proliferation assay[1]
Cell Types: RL95-2 Cell
Tested Concentrations: 10, 15, 20 and 25 µM
Incubation Duration: 72 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: Antiproliferative activity was shown at 10 µM concentration.

Western Blot Analysis[1]
Cell Types: RL95-2 Cell Line
Tested Concentrations: 20 µM
Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: diminished ERα phosphorylation but did not change Akt phosphorylation. The ratio of p-ERα/ERα was diminished compared with the control group.
For cell-based signaling studies: Culture ERalpha-positive cell lines (e.g., MCF-7 breast cancer cells) in phenol red-free media with charcoal-stripped serum. Treat cells with MPP dihydrochloride (0.1-10 uM) for 30-60 minutes before adding estradiol (1-10 nM). After 24 hours of treatment, assess cell viability by MTT assay or measure ERalpha target gene expression (e.g., pS2, progesterone receptor) by qRT-PCR or western blot. For primary hippocampal cell studies, treat with 1 pM to 1 uM MPP dihydrochloride for 24-48 hours before H2O2-induced oxidative stress challenge, then measure LDH activity and cell survival.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: 9-10 weeks old male C57BL/6N mice [2]
Doses: low dose (20 μg/kg body weight) or high dose (200 μg/kg body weight)
Route of Administration: subcutaneous injection; injection volume 5mL/kg; Results 60 minutes before PPI test: Caused a dose-dependent decrease in PPI percentage. Pretreatment at 200 μg/kg diminished the average percentage of PPI fraction by approximately 30%.
No in vivo animal protocol is standardized for MPP dihydrochloride alone. For studies involving ERalpha antagonism: Administer MPP dihydrochloride to rodents via intraperitoneal injection at doses of 0.5-5 mg/kg, typically dissolved in 10% DMSO and 90% sesame oil or saline. Inject 30 minutes to 2 hours before estradiol administration or before behavioral testing. For neuroprotection studies, administer before inducing oxidative stress or ischemic injury. Collect brain tissues for immunohistochemistry and molecular analysis.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
No detailed pharmacokinetic data is publicly available for MPP dihydrochloride. As a small molecule with molecular weight of 542.5, it is expected to have moderate oral bioavailability, but intraperitoneal administration is more commonly used in research settings. The compound is soluble in DMSO at >10 mM and should be stored as a powder at -20degC. Stock solutions can be stored below -20degC for several months.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No specific toxicity data is available for this ERalpha antagonist. At concentrations used in research (1 pM to 10 uM in vitro, and mg/kg doses in vivo), no overt toxicity has been reported. However, as with all research chemicals, standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed. Avoid inhalation and skin contact. Use appropriate personal protective equipment.

Additional Infomation
MPP dihydrochloride is a research-grade chemical tool intended for laboratory use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic applications. It is widely used to study the role of ERalpha in neuroprotection, cancer, metabolism, and reproductive biology. The compound should be stored as a powder at -20degC in a dry, dark environment. It is soluble in DMSO (10-50 mM). When preparing stock solutions, warm the tube to 37degC for 10 minutes and/or shake in an ultrasonic bath as needed. No clinical trials or approved therapeutic status exist.
