Raloxifene HCl (also known as LY-156758; LY-139481; trade names: Evista; Keoxifene; RALOX), the hydrochloride salt of Raloxifene, is a selective estrogen antagonist or estrogen strogen receptor modulator (SERM) that has been approved as a medication to prevent and treat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. It inhibits human cytosolic aldehyde oxidase-catalyzed phthalazine oxidation activity with an IC50 of 5.7 nM. Raloxifene belongs to the benzothiophene class of estrogen strogen receptor modulator (SERM). Raloxifene binds to estrogen receptors as a mixed estrogen agonist/antagonist; it displays both an ER-α-selective partial agonist/antagonist effect and a pure ER-ß-selective antagonist effect.
ln Vitro |
At nanomolar concentrations, raloxifene fully agonistically activates the TGF beta 3 promoter. In transient transfection studies, raloxifene acts as a pure estrogen antagonist to suppress the expression of the vitellogenin promoter, which contains the estrogen response element[1]. With Ki values ranging from 0.87 to 1.4 nM, raloxifene is a strong uncompetitive inhibitor of the oxidation of phthalazine, vanillin, and nicotine by human liver aldehyde oxidase[2]. Raloxifene has a Ki value of 51 nM and is also a noncompetitive inhibitor of an aldehyde oxidase-catalyzed reduction process of a molecule containing hydroxamic acid[2]. Raloxifene (0-80 μM; 48 hours) dramatically reduced the viability of mouse mmmary carcinoma BJMC3879luc2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner[5].

ln Vivo |
In ovariectomized (OVX) rats, raloxifene (3 mg/kg; once daily) has a limited effect on uterine wet weight and low estrogenic activity on bone resorption and serum cholesterol[3]. In the proximal tibia and distal femur, raloxifene (oral dosage; 0.1 mg/kg–10 mg/kg; 5 weeks) enhances bone mineral density. In ovariectomized (OVX) rats, it lowers serum cholesteroloral with an ED50 of 0.2 mg/kg[4]. Raloxifene (subcutaneously implanted mini-osmotic pumps; 18 or 27 mg/kg; once daily; 6 weeks) dramatically reduces the number of lymph node metastases in addition to dramatically suppressing tumor sizes in mice[5].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.90 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), 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 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. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.90 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), 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. View More

*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.
