Description Aminoglutethimide (BA-16038), an aromatase inhibitor, is used in the therapy of advanced BREAST Y.
Targets&IC50 Aromatase:10 μM
In vivo Aminoglutethimide accelerates its own metabolism from a basal value of 2.6±0.3 (S.E.) liters/24 hours to 5.3±1.4 liters/24 hours after 1 to 2 weeks of Aminoglutethimide administration, and markedly accelerates the metabolism of the synthetic glucocorticoid and dexamethasone, from basal values of 145±26.6 liters/24 hours to 568±127 liters/24 hours (p < 0.02) after 2 weeks of Aminoglutethimide administration. [3] Aminoglutethimide (150 mg/kg) abolishes the induction of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and almost depletes the gonads and plasma of progesterone or testosterone elicited by human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in the ovary of adult female mice and the testis of immature male mice, which is related to an inhibition of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (IC50 287 μM) rather than blockade of the steroidogenic pathway. [4]
Kinase Assay Concentration–response and kinetic studies: The microsomal protein (30 μg), [1β-3H]androstenedione (6.6 &times; 105 dpm) and NADPH (270 μM) are used for the concentration–response experiment with an incubation time of 20 minutes. The Aminoglutethimide is initially tested at 10 μM and 100 μM concentrations, followed by a full concentration–response study with at least 8 concentrations ranging from 0.01 μM to 160 μM. For the initial velocity study the concentration of [1β-3H]androstenedione is varied from 7.5 to 100 nM and the incubation time is set to 5 minutes. The tritiated water formed during the conversion of the tritiated substrate, [1β-3H]androstenedione, to estrone is quantified by liquid scintillation counting. Each assay is performed three times in duplicate and the results are treated by nonlinear regression analysis allowing the determination of the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50).
Cell Research The NCI-h295 tumor cell line is maintained in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with transferrin (0.1 mg/mL), insulin (5 μg/mL), selenium (5.2 μg/mL) and 2% FCS. The cells are incubated for 48 hours with Aminoglutethimide (3, 30, 300 μM). Then cells are examined by trypan blue staining for cell viability, counted with a coulter counter. For the assessment of ACTH-R mRNA, cells are harvested, and total RNA is extracted, electrophoresed, blotted and hybridized with a human ACTH-R cDNA probe.(Only for Reference)

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

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed n the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
