Mifepristone (RU486) is an orally effective progesterone (PR) receptor and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonist used as an abortion drug with in vitro IC50 values of 0.2nM and 2.6nM, respectively [1]. Mifepristone is an antiprogestin that blocks the effects of progesterone, causing cervical and uterine vasodilation and uterine contractions [2]. Mifepristone can also be used to treat depression and improve neurocognitive function and mood [3].
In vitro, treatment of ovarian cancer SK-OV-3, OV2008, IGROV-1 and OV2008 cells with mifepristone (20μM) completely blocked cell growth at 24h, and the effect lasted for 3 days [4]. Treatment of human gastric adenocarcinoma MKN-45 cells with mifepristone (5, 10, 20μM) dose-dependently inhibited heterotypic adhesion of cells to matrix gel, accompanied by downregulation of integrin β3 expression in cells [5].
In vivo, oral treatment of C57BL/6 mice with mifepristone (200 mg/kg) for 1 week completely blocked the reduction in the CD4:CD8 T cell ratio in secondary lymphoid tissue (SLT) induced by enriched environment (EE)[6]. Mifepristone (25 mg/kg) treated by subcutaneous injection for 14 days in depression model rats improved interleukin 1β (IL-1β)-induced depressive-like behavior and regulated the function of microglia and astrocytes[7].

Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | SK-OV-3、OV2008、IGROV-1、OV2008 cells |
Preparation Method | Subjected various ovarian cancer cell lines (SK-OV-3, Caov-3, IGROV-1, and OV2008) to a fixed, 20μM concentration of mifepristone for 3 days, with the compound being replaced every 24 h. |
Reaction Conditions | 20μM; 72h |
Applications | In all cell lines, exposure to 20μM mifepristone for 24 h was sufficient to arrest cell growth, with effects lasting for 3 days. |
Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Male C57BL/6 mice |
Preparation Method | Mifepristone was dissolved in 0.9% NaCl, 0.25% carboxymethylcellulose, 0.2% Tween 20. Male C57BL/6 mice were housed in an enriched environment(EE) or control housing and received daily oral gavage of mifepristone (200 mg/kg body weight) or vehicle control for 1 week. |
Dosage form | 200mg/kg; p.o. |
Applications | Mifepristone completely blocked the EE-induced reduction of the CD4:CD8 T-cell ratio in the secondary lymphoid tissue (SLT). |
