Product Description

Dienogest (formerly BAY86-5258; M-18575; MJR-35; ZK-37659; STS-557; Dinagest; Endometrion; Visanne) is a synthetic and orally bioavailable progesterone that was approved for use in contraception and the treatment of endometriosis. It is available for use as an oral contraceptive in combination with ethinylestradiol. It has antiandrogenic activity and as a result can improve androgenic symptoms. It is a non-ethinylated progestin which is structurally related to testosterone.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Dienogest (0.01-1 μM; 24 h) decreases PGE2 synthesis by inhibiting PGE2 synthase gene expression and simultaneously inhibits NF-κB activity in spheroid cultures [1]. Dienogest (0.1 μM; 24 h) suppresses the expression of aromatase expression genes and COUP-TFII mRNA in a PGE2-independent manner [1].
ln Vivo
In a rat endometrial autotransplantation model, dienogest (1 mg/kg; orally once daily for 14 days) modulates angiogenesis in ectopic endometrial lesions [2].
Cell Assay
Cell Viability Assay[1]
Cell Types: EM-PR cells
Tested Concentrations: 0.01-1 µM
Incubation Duration: 24 h
Experimental Results: Inhibited PGE2 production and suppressed NF-κB binding activity in the spheroid culture.

Cell Viability Assay[1]
Cell Types: EM-PR cells
Tested Concentrations: 0.1 µM
Incubation Duration: 24 h
Experimental Results: diminished the mRNA expression of the PGE2 synthases COX-2 and mPGES-1 compared with the respective control. Inhibited aromatase mRNA expression and increased the expression of COUP-TFII mRNA level .
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Female Wistar rats (8 to 10weeks old; 180-220 g; rat endometrial autograft model)[2].
Doses: 1 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Oral administration; one time/day for 14 days.
Experimental Results: demonstrated significant suppression of angiogenesis of endometrial autografts, as indicated by the decreased size of the microvascular network and diminished microvessel density. Dramatically decreased the level of perivascular α-smooth muscle actin within endometrial grafts.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
