    Notes: Abstract We have examined the influence of progestins (progesterone, R5020) and antiprogestins (RU486, ZK98299, Org 31710 and Org 31806) on the rate of proliferation of wild type T47D cells cultured in whole fetal bovine serum (FBS) or in single charcoal stripped fetal bovine serum (SSFBS). All of the progesterone antagonists RU486, ZK98299 and two novel antiprogestins Org 31710 and Org 31806 inhibited cell proliferation when cells were cultured in FBS. In contrast, all of the antiprogestins with the exception of ZK98299 enhanced cell growth when cells were cultured in SSFBS. This stimulatory effect of RU486 was observed only at a high concentration of the ligand (1 μM). The effect of R5020, however, was concentration independent. The number of cells in the presence of RU486 was ~ 600% followed by R5020 ~ 400% above control values after a 28 day culturing period. In contrast, when the cells were grown in the presence of medium containing non-stripped whole serum, RU486 inhibited the extent of cell proliferation by 45%. Estradiol (E2) stimulated the rate of proliferation in cells cultured in SSFBS. Similar to when cells were cultured in whole serum, the antiprogestins inhibited cell growth in E2-supplemented SSFBS. Detection of the growth enhancement effects of progesterone receptor (PR) ligands such as RU486 and R5020 on the cells grown in charcoal-stripped medium appear to require the removal of E2 by charcoal stripping of the serum.

    Notes: Abstract In order to gain a better understanding of the distinctive mechanisms of the various types of antiprogestins, we have characterized in vitro ligand binding, specific DNA binding and phosphorylation of progesterone receptor (PR) from T47D cells after treatment of cells with progestins (progesterone, R5020) and antiprogestins (RU486, ZK98299, Org 31806 and Org 31710). Treatment of the cells with R5020 or PR antagonists, with the exception of ZK98299, resulted in a quantitative upshift of PR-A and PR-B indicative of ligand/DNA-induced phosphorylation of PR. Treatment of cells with RU486, Org 31710 or Org 31806, but not R5020 or ZK98299 resulted in detectable PR-progesterone response element complexes (PR-PREc) as assessed by gel mobility shift assay. Although treatment of cells with ZK98299, a type I PR antagonist, did not induce phosphorylation, the antiprogestins, Org 31806 and Org 31710, in a manner identical to RU486, did. Our data suggest that Org 31806 and Org 31710 affect propertie s of PR from T47D cells that are similar to RU486. (Mol Cell Biochem 175: 205–212, 1997)
