Description

Epoprostenol sodium (Prostaglandin I2) sodium salt, the synthetic form of the natural prostaglandin derivative prostacyclin (prostaglandin I2), is registered worldwide for the treatment of Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Epoprostenol sodium is used in pulmonary hypertension and transplantation as a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

Epoprostenol (1.0 ng/mL; 24 h) sodium induces apoptosis in PAH-PASMCs by upregulating the expression of IP receptor and Fas ligand (FasL)[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
