Testolone (formerly known as RAD140) is a novel, potent, nonsteroidal, orally bioavailable selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) that is being researched for the treatment of diseases like breast cancer and muscle atrophy. Both male rats with kainate lesions and cultured neurons show neuroprotective effects from RAD140. RAD140 was found to be equally efficacious as testosterone in mitigating apoptotic insult-induced cell death in cultured hippocampal neurons. It was demonstrated that ERK phosphorylation was elevated and that the MAPK kinase inhibitor U0126 inhibited protection, indicating that RAD140 neuroprotection was mechanistically dependent upon MAPK signaling. Importantly, employing the rat kainate lesion model, RAD140 was also neuroprotective in vivo.
ln Vitro |
In a concentration-dependent manner, vosilasarm (0-300 nM; pretreated for 1 hour) increases neuron viability against Aβ[2].
In cultured neurons, vosilasarm (100 nM; 1 hour) guards against apoptotic insults. Vosilasarm exhibits protective profiles that considerably guard against Aβ and AAII-induced neuronal death, but not H2O2[2]. In neuronal cultures, votilasarm (100 nM; 15 minutes) significantly raises the levels of phosphorylated ERK, but not total ERK[2]. |

ln Vivo |
Vosilasarm exhibits good bioavailability in rats (F = 27-63%) and monkeys (65-75%), as well as high stability (t1/2 > 2 h) in incubations with rat, monkey, and human microsomes[1].
Vosilasarm (0.03-0.3 mg/kg; for 11 days) increases the weight of the prostate and the levator ani bulbocavernosus muscle in immature castrated rats[1]. The effect of testosterone propionate (TP) at 1 mg/kg on seminal vesicles is actually countered by a high dose of Vosilasarm (10 mg/kg, p.o. ), but TP's effect on the levator ani muscle is enhanced. Vosilasarm can induce antagonism at an effective dose of 0.3–1 mg/kg (p.o.) for 1 mg/kg TP (s.c.). Vosilasarm appears to be a strong and complete androgen agonist on the levator ani, but a weaker, partial antagonist on the seminal vesicle and potentially the prostate in the young castrate male rat model[1]. Vosilasarm is shown to be neuroprotective in vivo in the rat kainate lesion model. Vosilasarm has been shown in studies involving gonadectomized adult male rats to exhibit peripheral tissue-specific androgen action that largely spared prostate, neural efficacy as evidenced by activation of androgenic gene regulation effects, and neuroprotection of hippocampal neurons against cell death caused by systemic administration of the excitotoxin kainate[2]. |

Additional Infomation |
RAD140 is an investigational selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) for the treatment of conditions such as muscle wasting and breast cancer.
Vosilasarm is an orally bioavailable, non-steroidal selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), with potential tissue-selective androgenic/anti-androgenic activities. Upon oral administration, vosilasarm acts as an agonist in select tissues, such as skeletal muscle and bone, where it binds to and activates androgen receptors (ARs). In the prostate and breasts, vosilasarm acts as an antagonist and blocks AR activation and AR-mediated cellular proliferation. Therefore, this agent may improve bone formation and muscle mass and strength, and may inhibit both the growth of the prostate in males and AR-dependent breast cancer cell proliferation. Compared to anabolic agents, SARMs have reduced androgenic properties. |

*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.
