In vitro Androgen receptor (AR) antagonists are important compounds for the treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). The Atraric acid (AA), a natural compound, binds to the AR and acts as a specific AR antagonist. Interestingly, Atraric acid represents a novel chemical platform that could serve as a potential basis for new AR antagonists. METHODS AND RESULTS:Therefore, one objective of this study was to analyze the chemical/structural requirements for AR antagonism and to obtain predictions of where and how Atraric acid binds to the AR. Further, this study describes the chemical synthesis of 12 Atraric acid derivatives and their analysis using a combination of computational and functional assays. Functional analysis of Atraric acid derivatives indicated that none activated the AR. Both the para-hydroxyl group and the benzene ortho- and the meta-methyl groups of Atraric acid appeared to be essential to antagonize androgen-activated AR activity. Furthermore, extension of the hydrophobic side chain of Atraric acid led to slightly stronger AR antagonism. In silico data suggest that modifications to the basic Atraric acid structure change the hydrogen-bonding network with the AR ligand binding domain (LBD), so that the para-hydroxyl group of Atraric acid forms a hydrogen bond with the LBD, confirming the functional importance of this group for AR antagonism. Moreover, in silico modeling also suggested that the ortho- and meta- methyl groups of Atraric acid interact with hydrophobic residues of the ligand pocket of AR, which might explain their functional importance for antagonism. CONCLUSIONS:Thus, these studies identify the chemical groups of Atraric acid that play key roles in allowing the Atraric acid-based chemical platform to act as an AR antagonist.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box
