Travoprost is the Alcon trade name for fluprostenol isopropyl ester, an F-series prostaglandin analog which has been approved for use as an ocular hypotensive drug. Fluprostenol isopropyl ester is a prodrug which is converted by esterase enzymatic activity in the cornea to yield the corresponding…

11β-PGF2α-EA is the theoretical hepatic metabolite of PGD2-EA, produced during COX-2 metabolism of the endogenous cannabinoid AEA which is found in brain, liver, and other mammalian tissues. AEA can be used directly by COX-2 and specific PG synthase to produce ethanolamide congeners of…

(+)-15(R)-Fluprostenol isopropyl ester is a prodrug (Travoprost) which is converted by esterase enzymatic activity in the cornea to yield the corresponding free acid. The free acid, (+)-15(R)-fluprostenol, is a potent FP receptor agonist. The 15(R)-epimers of most PGs are about 100 times less…

A minor impurity produced in the synthesis of (+)-cloprostenol; 20-fold less active than (+)-cloprostenol in terminating pregnancy in the hamster.

DAN-1 EE is a fluorescent indicator for the bioimaging of NO. DAN-1 EE is a cell permeable derivative of DAN, a molecule which has been used extensively in the quantitation of nitrate and nitrite using fluorescence spectroscopy. Upon entry into the cell, DAN-1 EE is transformed into the less cell…

A water soluble prodrug analog of AEA with similar activity to that of AEA in the growth inhibition of C6 glioma cells; also a structural variant of LPA, however, its effects on the various LPA receptors have not been tested.

PPHP is a substrate for the measurement of peroxidase enzymes. PPHP has been used to quantitate the peroxidase activity of COX-1 and COX-2.

Hydroxy linoleins are a mixture of 132 possible isomers of mono-, di-, and tri-hydroxy compounds produced by the autoxidation of trilinolein and subsequent reduction of the hydroperoxides. Autoxidation of linoleic acid containing triglycerides (i.e., trilinolein) in vivo could result in the…

8-iso PGE2 isopropyl ester is a more lipophilic form of the free acid, 8-iso PGE2. Prostaglandin esters have enhanced lipid solubility compared to their parent compounds. They are generally hydrolyzed to the free acid upon in vivo administration, making the esters useful prodrugs. In general, the…

Linolein hydroperoxides are a mixture of 132 possible isomers of mono-, di-, and tri-hydroperoxides produced from the autoxidation of trilinolein.
