Biological Activity
Prostaglandin F2alphaethyl amide (PGF2alpha-NEt), a PGF2alpha analog featuring an N-ethyl amide modification at the C-1 carboxyl group, possesses ocular hypotensive activity similar to PG esters. Introduced as alternative prostaglandin ocular hypotensive prodrugs, PGF2alpha-NEt and other PG N-ethyl amides, contrary to claims of not converting to free acids in vivo, have been demonstrated by our laboratory studies to undergo conversion by bovine and human corneal tissue into the respective free acids at a rate of approximately 2.5 ug/g corneal tissue/hr. This suggests PGF2alpha-NEt is expected to elicit typical PGF2alpha free acid intraocular effects, albeit with slower hydrolysis kinetics characteristic of PG N-amides.
Safety & Regulatory
For Research Use Only (RUO). Not for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use. Wear appropriate PPE and consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prior to handling.
Due to the small pack, the powder may be highly dispersed during shipping due to static electricity and may adhere to the vial. Please centrifuge and add an appropriate solvent to fully dissolve the product and prepare the stock solution.
Stock concentration (mM) = [mass (mg) × 1000] / [MW (g/mol) × volume (mL)]. Example: to prepare 10 mM stock from 5 mg of a 500 g/mol compound: volume = (5 × 1000) / (500 × 10) = 1 mL DMSO. For working solutions, dilute the DMSO stock into assay buffer: C₁V₁ = C₂V₂. For a 1 µM working solution from a 10 mM stock in a 1 mL assay volume, add 0.1 µL of stock (or pre-dilute to an intermediate concentration first).
