Product Description
Isoflupredone belongs to the corticosteroid class and acts via binding to the glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors in animals such as horses. Isoflupredone has broad applications in infectious and inflammatory diseases.
Isoflupredone (CAS 338-95-4) is a synthetic glucocorticoid with the molecular formula C₂₁H₂₇FO₅ and a molecular weight of approximately 378.44 g/mol. It is a fluorinated derivative of prednisolone, featuring a fluorine atom at the 9α position. Isoflupredone has potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. It is used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of inflammatory conditions, including arthritis, dermatitis, and allergic reactions in animals. It is also used as a reference standard for pharmaceutical analysis.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1).
ln Vitro
Isoflupredone is a potent glucocorticoid receptor agonist. It binds to the glucocorticoid receptor with high affinity, leading to the activation of glucocorticoid response elements (GREs) and the regulation of gene expression. This results in the inhibition of pro-inflammatory mediators (cytokines, chemokines, prostaglandins, leukotrienes) and the suppression of immune cell function. The compound exhibits potent anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and vasoconstrictive activities.
ln Vivo
In horses, isoflupredone significantly lowers the serum potassium level. A powerful medication for treating horses with recurrent airway blockage is isoflupredone[1].
In vivo, isoflupredone exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. It is used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of various inflammatory conditions, including arthritis, bursitis, tenosynovitis, dermatitis, and allergic reactions. It reduces inflammation, pain, and swelling. The compound is administered by injection or topical application. Its effects are dose-dependent and duration of action is related to its pharmacokinetic properties.
Enzyme Assay
Glucocorticoid receptor binding affinity is measured using radioligand binding assays. The glucocorticoid receptor is incubated with a radiolabeled ligand (e.g., ³H-dexamethasone) and varying concentrations of isoflupredone. Competitive binding is measured and the IC₅₀ or Ki value is calculated. Transactivation activity is assessed using reporter gene assays in cells transfected with a GRE-luciferase construct. Cells are treated with isoflupredone and luciferase activity is measured.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays for glucocorticoid activity use cell lines expressing the glucocorticoid receptor (e.g., A549, HeLa). Cells are treated with isoflupredone at various concentrations. Glucocorticoid receptor activation is assessed by measuring the expression of glucocorticoid-responsive genes (e.g., GILZ, MKP-1) by qPCR or Western blot. Anti-inflammatory activity is assessed by measuring the inhibition of LPS-induced cytokine production (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β) in macrophage cell lines.
Animal Protocol
In vivo studies are typically conducted in animal models of inflammation. In veterinary applications, isoflupredone is used in dogs, cats, and horses for the treatment of inflammatory conditions. Efficacy is assessed by clinical signs (reduction in swelling, pain, lameness). Pharmacokinetic studies are conducted in target animal species following administration by various routes. Tissue distribution and elimination are assessed.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Isoflupredone is a glucocorticoid with typical pharmacokinetic properties of this class. It is rapidly absorbed after injection, has moderate protein binding, and is metabolized in the liver. It is eliminated in urine and feces. The duration of action is related to the dose and route of administration. Specific pharmacokinetic data for isoflupredone are available from veterinary pharmacology studies. It is intended for veterinary and research use.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Isoflupredone is a synthetic glucocorticoid with potent anti-inflammatory properties. As with other glucocorticoids, prolonged use or high doses can lead to adverse effects, including immunosuppression, adrenal suppression, osteoporosis, and metabolic disturbances. It should be used with caution in animals with infections, diabetes, or other systemic diseases. The compound is intended for veterinary use and research applications only.

Additional Infomation
9-Fluoroprednisolone is a 21-hydroxysteroid.
See also: Isoflurane acetate (active ingredient).
Isoflupredone is a fluorinated synthetic glucocorticoid used primarily in veterinary medicine for its potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. It is a derivative of prednisolone with enhanced potency due to the 9α-fluorine substitution. The compound is used for the treatment of inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, dermatitis, and allergic reactions in animals. It is also used as a reference standard for pharmaceutical analysis and quality control of glucocorticoid-containing products. It is for veterinary and research use only.
