General description

This Certified Reference Material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO 17034 and ISO/IEC 17025. All information regarding the use of this CRM can be found on the certificate of analysis.

Application

Ulipristal acetate USP reference standard, intended for use in specified quality tests and assays as specified in the USP compendia.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ulipristal acetate is a selective progesterone receptor modulator (SPRM) with tissue-selective partial antagonist activity. It has clinical use both as an emergency contraceptive and as a treatment for uterine fibroids. Ulipristal acetate acts as a partial antagonist on the hypothalamic–pituitary–ovarian axis to inhibit or delay ovulation without affecting human embryo implantation. As a progesterone antagonist, Ulipristal acetate selectively suppresses neo-vascularization, cell proliferation, and survival in uterine fibroid cells, but not in normal myometrial cells.
