Description of YK11

YK11 is a partial agonist of androgen receptor, with osteogenic activity.

YK11 is a partial agonist of androgen receptor, and induces myogenic differentiation of C2C12 Cells at 500 nM via Fst mRNA upregulation by AR. YK11 enhances Myf5 and myogenin mRNA expression, but requires high concentrations (YK11, 100 nM or 500 nM)[1]. YK11 (0.5 µM) increases the cell growth of osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells, and enhances ALP activity via AR. YK11 also elevates osteoprotegerin mRNA expression (0.5 µM) and dose-dependently increases osteocalcin mRNA expression (0.1-1.0 µM). In addition, YK11 enhances phosphorylation of Akt protein via rapid non-genomic signaling[2].

Protocol of YK11

Cell experiment:

Mouse myoblast C2C12 cells are cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2. C2C12 cells are seeded on plates and maintained in culture medium for 24 h. To induce myogenic differentiation, YK11 or DHT in DMEM supplemented with 2% horse serum (differentiation medium) is added to the cells on day 0. For the neutralization assay of Fst (also known as activin-binding protein), C2C12 cells are maintained in differentiation medium in the presence of anti-Fst antibody[1].

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
