progesterone receptor

Medroxyprogesterone is used in the treatment of renal carcinoma. It is a synthetic progestational hormone used in veterinary practice as an estrus regulator.

Megestrol acetate (BDH1298) is a progestogen with actions and uses similar to those of the progestogens in general. Megestrol acetate also has anti-androgenic properties. It is given by mouth in the palliative treatment or as an adjunct to other therapy in endometrial carcinoma and in breast cancer. Megestrol acetate has been approved to treat anorexia and cachexia.

Lynestrenol is a synthetic progestational hormone, is the progesterone receptor agonist

Progesterone (Pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione) is the major progestational steroid that is secreted primarily by the CORPUS LUTEUM and the PLACENTA. Progesterone acts on the UTERUS, the MAMMARY GLANDS and the BRAIN. It is required in EMBRYO IMPLANTATION; PREGNANCY maintenance, and the development of mammary tissue for MILK production.

Mifepristone (C-1073) is a Progestin Antagonist. The mechanism of action of mifepristone is as a Progestational Hormone Receptor Antagonist.

Levonorgestrel (D-Norgestrel) is a Progestin and Progestin-containing Intrauterine Device. The physiologic effect of levonorgestrel is by means of Inhibit Ovum Fertilization.

Melengestrol acetate is a derivative of progesterone and acts as a corticosteroid hormone. Melengestrol acetate promotes endometrial proliferation delay of menstrual activity and pregnancy maintenance.

CJ-42794 (CJ-042794) is a selective antagonist of the prostaglandin E receptor subtype 4 (EP4), inhibiting [3H]-PGE2 binding to the human EP4 receptor with a mean pKi of 8.5. It exhibits a binding affinity that is at least 200-fold more selective for the human EP4 receptor than for other human EP receptor subtypes (EP1, EP2, and EP3) (IC50: 8.5 (pKi)).

2-Ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate is an organophosphorus flame retardant (OPFRs) and acts as a PPARG agonist (EC20: 2.04 µM). Additionally, it inhibits the transcriptional activity of ERRγ (IC50: 1.3 µM) and enhances the expression of 3β-HSD1, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and progesterone secretion. This compound is applicable in studies related to female reproduction and fetal development.

Benzonitrile, 4-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-methyl-1-[(methylsulfonyl)methyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]oxy]-2,6-dimethyl- is a progesterone receptor antagonist with antiprogestin effects.

Vilaprisan (BAY 1002670) is a novel orally available and selective progesterone receptor modulator (SPRM) with antiproliferative activity against uterine fibroids (UF) and can be used for the study of uterine fibroids.

PF-02413873 is a competitive antagonist of nonsteroidal progesterone receptor with a Ki of 2.6 nM. PF-02413873 can be used in studies about the treatment of gynecological conditions such as endometriosis.

Chlormadinone acetate (Gestafortin) is an orally active synthetic progestational hormone used often in combinations as an oral contraceptive.

Norethindrone acetate (19-Norethindroneacetate) is an oestrogen with inhibitory effects on adolescent menstruation and hepatic adenomas and is often used in combination with progestins in the study of endometriosis.

Medroxyprogesterone Acetate (Farlutin) is a synthetic progestin that is derived from 17-hydroxyprogesterone. It is a long-acting contraceptive that is effective both orally or by intramuscular injection and has also been used to treat breast and endometrial neoplasms.

Estradiol dipropionate (17-Beta-Estradiol-3,17-Dipropionate) is a synthetic ester, specifically the 3, 17-dipropanoyl ester, of the natural estrogen, estradiol.

Cridanimod (10-carboxymethyl-9-acridanone, CMA) is a potent STING agonist that directly binds to STING and triggers a strong antiviral response through the TBK1 IRF3 route.

Etonogestrel (Implanon) is a steroidal progestin used as hormonal contraceptives.

Ethynodiol diacetate (Ethynodiol acetate) is a synthetic progestational hormone utilized alone or combined with estrogens as an oral contraceptive.

Altrenogest (Allyltrenbolone)(A35957; RU2267), a progestogen, has structural relation with veterinary steroid trenbolone.

Dienogest (STS 557) is an orally-active, semisynthetic, fourth generation, nonethinylated progestogen with antiproliferative, antiandrogenic, anti-inflammatory and antiangiogenic activities that is used in hormone therapy and as a female contraceptive.

17α-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) is a physiological progestin that is produced during glucocorticoid and steroid hormone synthesis and is increased during the third trimester of pregnancy. Hydroxyprogesterone binds to the cytoplasmic progesterone receptors in the reproductive system and subsequently activates progesterone receptor-mediated gene expression.

Drospirenone (ZK 3059) is a synthetic spironolactone analogue and progestin with progestational and anti-mineralocorticoid activity.

Norethindrone (Norethisterone) is a synthetic progestational hormone with actions similar to those of PROGESTERONE but functioning as a more potent inhibitor of ovulation. It has weak estrogenic and androgenic properties. The hormone has been used in treating amenorrhea, functional uterine bleeding, endometriosis, and for contraception.
