Description Turosteride is a small molecule steroidal 5α-reductase (5α-reductase) inhibitor.Turosteride has antitumor activity for the treatment of oncologic diseases and genitourinary disorders, and may be used in the study of prostate cancer.
In vivo Turosteride caused inhibition of rat and human prostatic enzymes, with IC50 values of 55 and 53 nM, respectively. In addition, turosteride did not show any relevant binding affinity to the rat prostate androgen receptor (IC50 84 μM; relative binding affinity 0.004% of DHT). The endocrine effects of turosteride were evaluated in adult male rats, treated orally at daily doses of 3, 10 and 30 mg/kg for 20 days. At these doses, the compound reduced the ventral prostate weight by 10, 33 and 42% and the intraprostatic total DHT content by 61, 74 and 78%, respectively, whereas no change in the intraprostatic content of T was observed. Turosteride caused a 40% reduction of serum DHT levels which, however, did not reach statistical significance, whereas serum T levels were similar to control animals. No effect on serum luteinizing hormone or prolactin was observed. These results indicate that the antiprostatic effect of turosteride in the adult rat is related to inhibition of the conversion of T to DHT.[1]

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

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box
