Product Overview:
20-ethyl Prostaglandin F2α (20-ethyl PGF2α) is an analog of PGF2α in which the ω-chain has been extended by the addition of two more methylene carbon atoms. It is therefore a modified version of the clinically approved glaucoma medication unoprostone.{8147} Unoprostone also contains lower side chain modifications (13,14-dihydro-15-keto) which severely limit its affinity for FP receptors, contributing to its lack of potency as a medication. 20-ethyl PGF2α retains the natural 15(S) allylic hydroxyl in the lower side chain, which may improve its potency as an intraocular hypotensive agent compared to unoprostone. The 2 carbon extension in 20-ethyl-PGF2α increases the Ki (120 nM) for the FP receptor from bovine corpus luteum only about 2.5-fold compared to PGF2α (50 nM).{11182} In vivo effects may be prolonged using 20-ethyl PGF2α, as the activity of 15-hydroxy PGDH using 20-ethyl PGF2α as a substrate is only 35% of the activity observed with PGF2α.{2309,11182}

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
