Lasofoxifene is a third-generation, non-steroidal selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). It selectively binds to human ERα with an IC value of 1.5 nM and inhibits bone loss in ovariectomized rats. In clinical studies of postmenopausal osteoporosis, 0.5 mg/day lasofoxifene was associated with reduced risks of nonvertebral and vertebral fractures, ER-positive breast cancer, coronary heart disease, and stroke but an increased risk of venous thromboembolic events. Lasofoxifene has also been shown to act as an inverse agonist at the CB cannabinoid receptor, indicating its potential to be repurposed as a therapeutic for indications wherein CB is a target.
Lasofoxifene is an orally active and selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). Lasofoxifene exhibits an anti-osteoporotic function and also inhibits primary tumor growth and metastases. Lasofoxifene can be used for research of breast cancer and postmenopausal osteoporosis.
体外研究
Lasofoxifene (1 nM-1 μM; 48 h) shows antagonist activity on ER+ breast cancer cells without being affected by the expression level of activating ERα mutants relative to wild-type (WT) ERα.
体内研究
Lasofoxifene (4 mg/mice; s.c.; 5 day/week; for 43 d) decreases arthritis severity, by reducing cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), the serum marker of cartilage destruction and reducing serum IL-6 (inflammatory cytokine) levels in mice.
Lasofoxifene (4 mg/mice; s.c.; 5 day/week; for 43 d) protects against generalised bone loss in CIA by increasing trabecular bone mineral density (BMD), cortical thickness in mice.
Lasofoxifene (5, and 10 mg/kg; s.c.; 5 day/week; for 70 d) exerts function of inhibiting primary tumor growth and reducing metastases to the lung and the liver in mice.
Animal Model:
Post-menopausal RA model on OVX (ovariectomised) DBA/1 mice (female DBA/1 mice, 8-10 weeks old, CIA-treated)
Dosage:
4 mg/mouse/day
Administration:
Subcutaneous injection; 5 days a week from the first signs of arthritis (day 18); 43 days
Result:
Reduced in arthritis severity, including synovial inflammation and destruction of joints reduction.
The mean arthritis frequency was 47% while the vehicle group was 81% at 42 days post immunization.
Animal Model:
NSG mices with xenograft tumors model (MIND, mammary intraductal): WT, Y537S and D538G ERα render tumors
Dosage:
1, 5, or 10 mg/kg
Administration:
Subcutaneous injection; 5 days per week; for 70 days
Result:
Elicited a superior inhibitory effect at a dose of 10 mg/kg, resulted potential tumor shrinkage in Y537S and D538G tumors.
And also reduced tumor weight to 60% for Y537S and 50% for D538G at 5 and 10 mg/kg, respectively.
