| Targets |
AR antagonist 1 hydrochloride targets the androgen receptor (AR), functioning as a potent antagonist. It binds to AR, preventing its activation by androgens and inhibiting AR-mediated transcription, thereby suppressing androgen-dependent cell proliferation. The compound also binds to E3 ligase ligands with weak binding affinities to VHL protein, making it a valuable building block for the synthesis of PROTAC degraders such as ARD-266. Its dual functionality as an AR antagonist and a ligand for E3 ligase recruitment enables targeted protein degradation applications.

| ln Vitro |
AR antagonist 1 (compound 29) hydrochloride functions as a ligand for the ARD-266 target ligase. Based on VHL E3 ligase, ARD-266 is an extremely effective androgen receptor (AR) PROTAC degrader [1]. With its E3 ligase complex, AR antagonist 1 exhibits micromolar binding affinity, making it a useful tool for the successful design of PROTAC degraders [1]. Two distinct ligands, one for the E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other for the target protein, are present in PROTAC and are joined by a linker. To specifically break down target proteins, PROTACs make use of the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system [1].
In vitro, AR antagonist 1 hydrochloride is a potent androgen receptor antagonist. It binds to AR and prevents its activation by androgens, inhibiting AR-mediated transcription and suppressing androgen-dependent cell proliferation. Its activity is assessed in cell-based assays measuring AR-mediated transcriptional activity using AR-responsive reporter gene constructs. The compound also binds to E3 ligase ligands with weak binding affinities to VHL protein, making it useful for PROTAC synthesis. |
| ln Vivo |
Specific in vivo activity data for AR antagonist 1 hydrochloride as a standalone compound are not extensively documented in the publicly available literature. Its primary application is as a building block for the synthesis of PROTAC ARD-266 rather than as a standalone therapeutic agent. When incorporated into PROTAC molecules, it enables targeted degradation of AR. Further in vivo studies of the standalone compound are needed to characterize its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for AR antagonist 1 hydrochloride typically involve competitive binding experiments using androgen receptor and radiolabeled or fluorescently labeled androgen as tracer. The compound's binding affinity to AR is assessed, with IC₅₀ values determined through dose-response binding experiments. Assays are conducted in buffered solutions at physiological pH with appropriate receptor preparations. Its antagonist activity is confirmed through functional assays measuring AR-mediated transcriptional inhibition using AR-responsive reporter gene constructs.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for AR antagonist 1 hydrochloride utilize AR-positive prostate cancer cell lines. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of the compound for 24-72 hours. AR-mediated transcriptional activity is evaluated using reporter gene assays with androgen response element (ARE)-luciferase constructs. Cell proliferation is assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assays. The expression of AR target genes such as PSA is measured by qPCR. Standard cell culture conditions (37°C, 5% CO₂) with charcoal-stripped serum are employed to minimize background androgen activity.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies with AR antagonist 1 hydrochloride as a standalone compound are not typically conducted, as its primary application is as a building block for PROTAC synthesis. When incorporated into PROTAC ARD-266, the resulting molecule is evaluated in animal models of prostate cancer. For the standalone compound, potential study designs would include xenograft models using AR-positive cancer cell lines. All procedures must comply with institutional animal care and use guidelines.
