The behaviour of the antifertilizing synthetic steroid RU 38486 towards human uterine progestin receptor was investigated. RU 38486 competed in the same order of magnitude as progesterone for the [3H]R 5020 binding site of progestin receptor, whereas R 5020 was unable to compete against [3H]RU 38486. This apparent contradiction could be explained by means of HPLC-chromatography. HPLC-chromatography with an anion exchange column (MonoQ, Pharmacia, Uppsala, Sweden) showed that [3H]RU 38486 forms at least two stable complexes with uterine cytosol, on one hand with serum albumin, which presents almost 90% of bound radioactivity, and on the other hand with the two native progestin receptor forms, corresponding to 4 S and 8 S receptor forms in sucrose density gradient analysis. Whether reduced binding of salt-activated RU 38486 receptor complexes to DNA-cellulose is due to reduced activation is still uncertain and remains to be further investigated.
