  • Patent number: 11939352
    Abstract: Biotransformation of an aromatase inhibitor, testolactone (1), yielded four metabolites, 7?-hydroxy-3-oxo-13,17-seco-5?-androsta-1-eno-17,13?-lactone (2), 3?,11?-dihydroxy-13,17-seco-5?-androsta-17,13?-lactone (3), 4?,5?-epoxy-3?-hydroxy-13,17-secoandrosta-1-eno-17,13?-lactone (4), and 4?,5?-epoxy-3?-hydroxy-13,17-secoandrosta-1-eno-17,13?-lactone (5). Aromatase (estrogen synthase) involves in the synthesis of estrogen, and promotes the growth of breast cancerous cells. It is a key target for the discovery of chemotherapeutic agents against ER+(estrogen-positive) breast-cancers. Metabolites 2 (IC50=8.63±0.402 nM), and 3 (IC50=9.23±1.31 nM) were identified as potent inhibitors against human aromatase enzyme, in comparison to 1 (IC50=0.716±0.031 ?M), and the standard aromatase inhibiting drug, exemestane (IC50=0.232±0.031 ?M). Derivatives 4 (IC50=10.37±0.50 ?M) and 5 (IC50=0.82±0.059 ?M) also showed a good inhibition against aromatase enzyme.

  • Patent number: 11938140
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a pharmaceutical intervention in the neonatal pig that inhibits and delays development and activation of the HPG axis, growth of the boar testis and inhibits testicular production of testosterone and androstenone, which prevents the development of aggressive behavior in the maturing boars and the presence of boar taint in the meat. The invention comprises treatment with a combination of an androgen and an estrogen in the newborn male piglet using extended drug delivery methods, with a defined duration of no more than 12 weeks, for the purpose of inhibiting the production of testosterone and androstenone and the accumulation of the boar taint-inducing molecules androstenone and skatole in the fat.
