A neuropeptide with diverse biological activities
Misoprostol-d5 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of misoprostol by GC- or LC-MS. Misoprostol is an analog of prostaglandin E1 and an agonist of the PGE2 receptor subtypes EP2 and EP3.1,2,3 It binds to EP1, EP2, EP3-III, and EP4 receptors (Kis = 35.675, 10.249, 0.319, 5.499 μM, respectively) and is selective for EP receptors over DP, FP, IP, and TP receptors (Kis = >100 μM for all).1 Misoprostol inhibits electrically induced twitch contraction in isolated guinea pig ileum circular muscle and vas deferens (EC50s = 102.92 and 4.3 nM, respectively), which endogenously express high levels of EP2 and EP3 receptors, respectively.3,4 It inhibits FMLP-induced superoxide anion generation in human neutrophils (EC50 = 0.35 μM).2 Misoprostol inhibits ethanol-induced gastric lesion formation in rats (ED50 = 0.31 μg/kg).5 Formulations containing misoprostol have been used in the prevention of NSAID-induced gastric ulcers.
