Androsterone (5α-Androstan-3α-ol-17-one) is a metabolite of testosterone that modulates the susceptibility of an epilepsy seizure [1]. Androsterone can alleviate the damaging effects of chilling stress by improving antioxidative system and enhancing carotenoid levels in maize seedlings [2]. Androsterone has been widely used to inhibit the proliferation of cardiac muscle cells and regulate the nuclear translocation of androgen receptors[3].
In vitro, Androsterone (75μM) treatment for 24 hours significantly reduced the viability of H9c2 cells, resulting in a decrease in the level of phosphorylated RB protein and inducing cell cycle arrest[4]. Treatment with 100μM Androsterone for 24 hours significantly induced the expression of small heterodimer partner (SHP) in AML-12 cells[5].
In vivo, Androsterone treatment via intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 200mg/kg/day for 2 days significantly increased the expression of Calbindin-D28k in the hippocampus of mice with status epilepticus (SE)[6]. A single intraperitoneal injection of 80mg/kg of Androsterone, lasting for 15 minutes, significantly increased the threshold for convulsions in mice[7].

在体外,75μM的Androsterone处理H9c2细胞24小时,显著降低了细胞活力,导致RB蛋白磷酸化水平下降并诱导细胞周期阻滞[4]。100μM的Androsterone处理AML-12细胞24小时,显著诱导了small heterodimer partner (SHP)的表达[4]。
在体内,每日腹腔注射200mg/kg剂量的Androsterone,连续2天,显著增加了癫痫持续状态小鼠海马中Calbindin-D28k的表达[6]。单次腹腔注射80mg/kg剂量的Androsterone,持续15分钟,显著提高了小鼠的惊厥阈值[7]。
| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | H9c2 cells |
Preparation Method | H9c2 cells were incubated with high-glucose DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum in a humidified atmosphere at 37°C with 5% CO2. H9c2 cells treated with different concentrations of Androsterone (0, 10, 50, 75, and 100μM) were seeded in 96-well culture plates (5000 cells/well) and incubated for 24h. Cell viability was measured. |
Reaction Conditions | 0, 10, 50, 75, and 100μM; 24h |
Applications | Androsterone treatment significantly reduced the cell viability of H9c2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Male ICR mice |
Preparation Method | Male ICR mice were housed under a 12h light/dark cycle with food and water ad libitum. Lithium chloride (127mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) 24h prior to pilocarpine administration. Next, mice were pretreated with methscopolamine-bromide (1mg/kg; i.p.) 30min prior to pilocarpine, and single dose of pilocarpine (30mg/kg; i.p.) was administered. Seizures were scored using Racine’s scale, and the duration of status epilepticus (SE) was determined by behavioral assessment. All mice received i.p. injections of 0.9% saline: 5ml twice on the day with SE and 5ml twice (in the morning and evening) of the day after SE. Two hours after SE, mice were treated with Androsterone (200mg/kg/day; i.p.). After 2 days, the brain tissues of the mice were removed for analysis. |
Dosage form | 200mg/kg/day for 2 days; i.p. |
Applications | Androsterone treatment significantly increased the expression of Calbindin-D28k in the hippocampus of mice with SE. |
