Product Data
Biological target:
Propyl pyrazole triol (PPT) is a selective estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) agonist.
In vitro activity:
At 1000 ng/ml of tetracycline, when expression of ERβ is suppressed, PPT was able to induce cell proliferation to a level of 173%, an induction level that was slightly higher than the maximal induction of cell proliferation by E2 (164%) under these conditions. This is in spite of the fact that the affinity of ERα for PPT was lower than for E2. Although the E2-induced proliferation with full expression of ERβ was reached at 3nM of PPT (153%), no considerable reduction of proliferation compared with E2 (124%) was observed under all ERα/ERβ ratios studied due to the inability of PPT to activate ERβ. Reference: Toxicol Sci. 2008 Oct;105(2):303-11. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18644836/
In vivo activity:
In a short-term (4 d) uterotrophic assay, PPT was found to be as efficacious as 17alpha-ethinyl-17beta-estradiol in stimulating uterine weight gain and up-regulating complement 3 gene expression. In a 6-wk chronic model, PPT completely prevented the ovariectomy-induced body weight increase and loss of bone mineral density. It also increased uterine weight and markedly reduced plasma cholesterol levels in these mature animals. PPT was also effective in the brain. It increased progesterone receptor mRNA in the arcuate and ventromedial nuclei of the hypothalamus and prevented experimentally induced hot flushes.
