Description:

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

Latanoprost, also known as PHXA41 and XA34, is a prostaglandin analogue (more specifically an analogue of prostaglandin F2α) that lowers the pressure by increasing the outflow of aqueous fluid from the eyes through the uvealsclearal tract. Latanoprost is an isopropyl ester prodrug, meaning it is inactive until it is hydrolyzed by esterases in the cornea to the biologically active acid. Latanoprost, in pure form, is an oily liquid. For the convenience of use, it is supplied as 200mg / mL in ethanol.

Product Data
Biological target:
Latanoprost (PHXA41) is a prostaglandin F2α analogue and an agonist for the FP prostanoid receptor, and lowers intraocular-pressure (IOP).
In vitro activity:
Latanoprost above concentrations of 3.125 mg/l can induce dose- and time-dependent morphological abnormality, growth retardation, viability decline, and plasma membrane permeability elevation of HCS cells. Moreover, latanoprost can arrest the cell cycle of these cells at S phase and induce PS externalization, DNA fragmentation, and apoptotic body formation of the cells. Furthermore, latanoprost can induce activation of caspase-3, -8 and -9; disruption of MTP; downregulation of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2; upregulation of pro-apoptotic Bax; and cytoplasmic cytochrome c release. Reference: Curr Eye Res. 2017 Apr;42(4):534-541. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27749098/
In vivo activity:
Continuous subcutaneous infusion of latanoprost gradually decreased the IOP (intraocular pressure); the stable nadir of IOP, which was 20% lower than that prior to the start of infusion, was reached on day 3. Subcutaneous continuous delivery of latanoprost decreased the IOP in the conscious normotensive Wistar rats in this study.

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
