Misoprostol is a widely sold analog of PGE1 which has potent but relatively non-selective agonist activity with respect to the prostanoid EP receptor subgroup. Misoprostol has been used therapeutically for many years in humans for the treatment of gastric ulcer disease under the Searle tradename…

An internal standard for the quantification of PGA2 by GC- or LC-MS.

15(R)-PGF2α is the C-15 epimer of the naturally occurring mammalian autacoid PGF2α. It has only 25% of the potency of PGF2α in hamster antifertility studies, which may be due to reduced affinity for FP receptors. Compared to PGF2α, 15(R)-PGF2α has a binding affinity of…

A dehydration product of PGD2 formed by the elimination of the C-9 hydroxyl group; inhibits platelet aggregation (IC₅₀ ~ 5-10 nM); has antimitotic and antiproliferative effects on a variety of cultured normal cells and tumor cell lines.

An internal standard for the quantification of PGF2α by GC- or LC-MS.

PGA2 is a naturally occurring prostaglandin in gorgonian corals where it may function in self defense. It is generally not present in mammals. PGA2 has low biological potency in most bioassays, but it does show some antiviral/antitumor activity. At a 25 µM concentration, PGA2 blocks the cell…

Iloprost is a second generation structural analog of prostacyclin (PGI) with about ten-fold greater potency than the first generation stable analogs, typified by carbaprostacyclin. Iloprost binds with equal affinity to the human recombinant IP and EP1 receptors with a Ki of 11 nM. Iloprost…

Active metabolite of lactacystin, a widely used selective inhibitor of the 20S proteasome, with at least 10 times better activity; irreversibly alkylates subunit X of the 20S proteasome.

16,16-dimethyl PGF2β is a metabolically stable analog of PGF2β. It prevents bronchospasm in asthmatics but is less potent than PGE2.

A metabolite of PGD2 via the 15-hydroxy PGDH pathway.

8-iso-17-phenyl PGF2β is an isomer of bimatoprost (free acid) that is epimerized at the 8 and 9 positions. There are no published reports on the biological activity of 8-iso-17-phenyl PGF2β.

ApNA is one of several nitroaniline fatty acid amides which can be used to measure FAAH activity. FAAH is a relatively unselective enzyme in that it accepts a variety of amide head groups other than the ethanolamine of its nominal endogenous substrate AEA (Item No. 90050). It also will hydrolyze…
