AbstractWe have discovered a new, nonsteroidal, potent estrogen agonist/antagonist, CP-336,156. CP-336,156 binds selectively and with high affinity to the human estrogen receptor-alpha with a half-inhibition concentration of 1.5 nM, which is similar to that seen with estradiol (4.8 nM). When given orally to immature (3-week-old) female Sprague-Dawley rats for 3 days at doses of 0.1, 1.0, 10, or 100 microg/kgmiddle dotday, unlike 17alpha-ethynyl estradiol, CP-336,156 had no effect on uterine wet or dry weight. Similarly, no uterine hypertrophy was observed in aged (17-month-old) female rats treated (po) with CP-336,156 at 10 or 100 microg/kgmiddle dotday for 28 days. We also found that CP-336,156 decreased total serum cholesterol and fat body mass and had no effect on lean body mass in these aged female rats. In 5-month-old ovariectomized (OVX) Sprague-Dawley female rats, CP-336,156 completely prevented OVX-induced increases in body weight gain, total serum cholesterol, and serum osteocalcin at doses between 10 and 1000 microg/kgmiddle dotday after 4 weeks. At these doses, CP-336,156 completely prevented OVX-induced bone loss and inhibited the increased bone turnover associated with estrogen deficiency in lumbar vertebrae, proximal tibiae, and distal femora. Similar to estrogen, CP-336,156 induced apoptosis and p53 expression with a concomitant decrease in the number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive multinuclear cells in rat bone marrow cell cultures in vitro, suggesting that the induction of apoptosis may be a mechanism for the estrogenic activities of CP-336,156 in bone. In summary, CP-336,156 is a new, orally active, nonsteroidal, potent estrogen agonist/antagonist that has similar effects in bone as estradiol but without the uterine-stimulating effects associated with estradiol in rats. 10.1210/en.139.4.2068
