Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

U-44069 is a stable prostaglandin H₂ analogue that acts as a potent vasoconstrictor by stimulating thromboxane A₂ (TXA₂) receptors, also known as TP receptors. It induces calcium influx in preglomerular vessels, leading to vasoconstriction. Additionally, U-44069 stimulates shape change in human platelets without a measurable increase in intracellular calcium concentration. These properties make U-44069 a valuable tool for studying vascular function and platelet aggregation.
