prostanoid selective fp receptor

Latanoprost acid is a selective agonist of prostanoid receptors and inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and function through the inhibition of c-fos/NFATc1 pathway. Latanoprost acid can be used in studies about lowering pressure inside the eyes.

Bimatoprost acid (17-phenyl trinor PGF2α) is a metabolically stable analog of PGF2α and has a potential antagonistic activity for the FP receptor. It has a relative potency of 756% compared to PGF2α for binding to the FP receptor on ovine luteal cells.

Latanoprost (Xalatan) is a prostaglandin F2alpha analogue and a prostanoid selective FP receptor agonist with an ocular hypertensive effect.

Selective prostacyclin IP receptor antagonist (pKi = 8.3). Exhibits no affinity at other prostanoid receptors (EP1-4, FP and TP) in a radioligand binding assay.
