prostaglandin e-3

Prostaglandin E3 (PGE3) is an eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) derivative with anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activity, inhibits polarization to M1 macrophages, and shows anti-proliferative effects in human lung cancer cells.

PF-4693627 is an effective and selective microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 inhibitor (IC50=3 nM). It is used for the treatment of inflammation caused by osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

CAY10526 (BTH) is a selective mPGES-1 inhibitor that acts as an inhibitor of the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Butaprost is a chemical compound that functions as a selective agonist for the prostaglandin E receptor (EP2). It exhibits an EC50 of 33 nM and a Ki of 2.4 μM when interacting with the murine EP2 receptor. However, Butaprost demonstrates lower activity against murine EP1, EP3, and EP4 receptors. Furthermore, it effectively attenuates fibrosis by inhibiting the TGF-β/Smad2 signaling pathway [1] [2] [3].

2,5-dimethyl Celecoxib is a derivative of celecoxib that does not inhibit COX-2 (IC50 = >100 μM).1 It does inhibit microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) in HeLa cells (IC50 = 15.6 μM) and reduces prostaglandin E2 production in HeLa, A549, and HCA-7 cells (IC50s = 0.64, 0.83, and 3.08 μM, respectively).2 It inhibits proliferation of drug-sensitive RPMI8226 and multidrug-resistant 8226 Dox40 multiple myeloma cells, as well as increases the rate of apoptosis when used at concentrations of 20 and 30 μM.3 2,5-dimethyl Celecoxib reduces the expression of survivin, cyclin A, cyclin B, MEK1, and MEK2 in 8226 Dox40 cells. The antiproliferative effect of 2,5-dimethyl celecoxib is independent of mPGES-1 inhibition.2References1. Zhu, J., Song, X., Lin, H.-P., et al.

PGBx is a mixture of oligomers of PGB1 with a molecular weight of 1,000-1,500. It has antioxidant and free radical trapping activity that was first studied in isolated mitochondria.1 PGBx has anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective activity which may be attributed to inhibition of the 14 kDa sPLA2.2,3 At a dose of 1 mg/kg, PGBx significantly reduces the incidence of ulcers in rats.2References1.

The prostaglandin E receptor 4 (EP4) is one of four G protein-coupled receptors that mediate the actions of prostaglandin E2 . Binding of PGE2 to the EP4 receptor causes an increase in intracellular cyclic AMP, which plays important roles in bone formation and resorption, cancer, and atherosclerosis. KMN-80 is a substituted γ-lactam (pyrrolidinone) derivative of PGE1 that acts as a selective and potent agonist of EP4 with an IC50 value of 3 nM (IC50 = 1.4 μM for EP3 and > 10 μM for all other prostanoid receptors). In functional assays it has been shown to stimulate secreted alkaline phosphatase gene reporter activity in EP4-transfected HEK293 cells with an EC50 value of 0.19 nM, demonstrating >5,000 and 50,000-fold selectivity against EP2 and TP, respectively. KMN-80 can induce the differentiation of bone marrow stem cells from both young and aged rats into osteoblasts in vitro (EC50s = 20 and 153 nM, respectively) and exhibits favorable tolerability up to at least 10 μM, whereas the EP4 agonist L-902,688 is highly cytotoxic at similar concentrations in these cells. KMN-80 has been used to repair calvarial defects in an in vivo rat craniomaxillofacial reconstruction model (rate of reduction in defect size equivalent to BMP-2 treated rats) and to promote bone formation in a rat incisor tooth socket model.

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) inhibitor 3 is a selective inhibitor targeting microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1; IC50 = 0.2 µM), demonstrating greater selectivity for mPGES-1 over COX-1, COX-2, 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), and soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) in assays at 10 µM. This compound effectively reduces IL-1β-induced PGE2 production in A549 cells and decreases LPS-induced IL-6 and PGE2 in J774A.1 macrophages at concentrations of 10 and 1 µM, respectively. Additionally, it blocks the production of 5-LO-derived products, including leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and 5-H(p)ETE, in response to calcium ionophore A23187 alone or combined with arachidonic acid, with IC50 values of 4.9 and 5.2 µM, respectively. When administered in vivo at doses of 10 mg/kg, PGE2 inhibitor 3 effectively prevents leukocyte infiltration in a mouse model of zymosan-induced peritonitis.
