Latanoprost lactone diol is an important intermediate compound in the synthesis of Latanoprost. Latanoprost, classified as a prostaglandin F2α analogue, functions as an agonist for the FP prostanoid receptor, resulting in a reduction in intraocular pressure (IOP).
RIP2 kinase inhibitor 1 is a potent and selective receptor interacting inhibitor of protein 2 (RIP2) kinase(RIP2 FP with an IC50 of 0.03 μM ),and is used for autoinflammatory disorders.
AS604872 is a selective antagonist of the FPreceptor.. AS604872 significantly accelerated degeneration of the media in both cerebral artery and aorta as evidenced by thinning of the media and disruption of the elastic lamina and promoted IA and aortic di
(+) - cloprostenol sodium is a kind of water-soluble prostaglandin F2 α ( PGF2 α) Analogues. It is an FPreceptor agonist and a potent luteinizing agent in rats and hamsters.
Latanoprost is an F-series prostaglandin (PG) analog which has been approved for use as an ocular hypotensive drug. Latanoprost is an isopropyl ester, a prodrug form which is converted to latanoprost (free acid) by endogenous esterase enzymes. The free acid form is 200 times more potent than latanoprost as a ligand for the human recombinant FPreceptor. 5-trans Latanoprost (free acid) is an isomer of latanoprost (free acid) wherein the double bond between carbons 5 and 6 has been changed from cis (Z) to trans (E). The trans isomer of latanoprost occurs as an impurity in commercial preparations of the bulk drug product. The present compound was prepared primarily as an analytical standard for detection and quantitation of this impurity. From what can be inferred from the study of other trans isomers of F-type prostaglandins, the biological activity of this isomer is likely to be similar to that of the cis isomer. However, there are no specific published reports on the biological activity, and on reducing intraocular pressure in particular, of 5-trans latanoprost.
(+)-Cloprostenol is a synthetic analog of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α). It is an FPreceptor agonist and a potent luteolytic agent in rats and hamsters. It is 200 times and 100 times more potent than PGF2α in terminating pregnancy in hamsters and rats, respectively, without the side effects associated with PGF2α. Cloprostenol is also used in veterinary medicine as a luteolytic agent for the induction of estrus and the treatment of reproductive disorders in cattle, swine, and horses. (+)-Cloprostenol methyl ester is a more lipid soluble form of cloprostenol, which may be more amenable for certain formulations.
There are currently four prostaglandin (PG) derivatives which have been approved for human clinical use for the treatment of glaucoma. The names of the PGs and the concentrations of the approved doses are: travoprost (40 μg/ml), latanoprost (50 μg/ml), bimatoprost (300 μg/ml), and unoprostone (1,500 μg/ml). All of these compounds are modified at C-1 in order to act as lipophilic prodrugs in the eye. All have also been postulated to function via activation of the prostanoid FPreceptor. Unoprostone and bimatoprost stand out in this class due to their lack of potency. Both are also claimed to have alternate mechanisms of actions: as a docosanoid in the case of unoprostone and as a prostamide in the case of bimatoprost. Lumula is a hybrid eicosanoid analog which incorporates the docosanoid features of unoprostone as well as the prostamide features of bimatoprost. Based on classical structure-activity relationships which have been established for prostanoid receptors
Prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α), acting through the FPreceptor, causes smooth muscle contraction and exhibits potent luteolytic activity. 17-trifluoromethylphenyl trinor Prostaglandin F2α (17-trifluoromethylphenyl trinor PGF2α) is an analog of PGF2α that shares the meta-trifluoromethyl group of travoprost with the 17-phenyl trinor modification of latanoprost. It is anticipated to be a potent and selective agonist of the FPreceptor, with potential applications in glaucoma and luteolysis. 17-trifluoromethylphenyl trinor PGF2α ethyl amide is a lipophilic analog of 17-trifluoromethylphenyl trinor PGF2α. Ethyl amides of PGs can serve as prodrugs, as they are hydrolyzed in certain tissues to generate the bioactive free acid.
Prostaglandin F1α (PGF1α) is the putative metabolite of dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA) via the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway. Both PGF1α and PGF2α have been shown to act as priming pheromones for male Atlantic salmon with a threshold concentration of 10-11 M. [1] PGF1α binds to the ovine corpus luteum FPreceptor at only 8% of the relative potency of PGF2α. [2] It is only half as active as PGF2α in inducing human respiratory smooth muscle contractions in vitro. [3]
17-phenyl trinor Prostaglandin F2α N-ethyl amide (17-phenyl trinor PGF2α) is an F-series prostaglandin analog which has been approved for use as an ocular hypotensive drug, sold under the Allergan trade name 17-phenyl trinor PGF2α ethyl amide. Investigations in our lab have shown that 17-phenyl trinor PGF2α ethyl amide is converted by an amidase enzymatic activity in the human cornea to yield the corresponding free acid, with a conversion rate of about 25 μg cornea 24 hours. The free acid, 17-phenyl trinor PGF2α, is a potent FPreceptor agonist. 15(R)-17-phenyl trinor PGF2α is the 15-epi, or unnatural isomer of this active free acid metabolite. It has much diminished FPreceptor-mediated activity
15(S)-Latanoprost is an analog of latanoprost in which the hydroxyl at carbon 15 is inverted relative to latanoprost. The IC50 values for the free acid forms of latanoprost and 15(S)-latanoprost were determined to be 3.6 nM and 24 nM, respectively, in a FPreceptor binding assay using the cat iris sphincter muscle. A 3 μg dose of 15(S)-latanoprost caused a 1 mmHg reduction of IOP in normotensive cynomolgus monkeys. 15(S)-Latanoprost is a potential impurity in most commercial preparations of the latanoprost bulk drug product.
The actions of many clinical F-series prostaglandins (PGs), including those used for estrous synchronization and for reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP), are mediated through the PGF2α (FP) receptor. 16-phenoxy tetranor Prostaglandin F2α cyclopropyl methyl amide (16-phenoxy tetranor PGF2α cyclopropyl methyl amide) is an analog of PGF2α containing a 16-phenoxy group on the lower (ω) side chain and a cyclopropyl methyl amide at the C-1 position. There are no published reports on the biological activity of 16-phenoxy tetranor PGF2α cyclopropyl methyl amide.
