15(S)-15-Methyl prostaglandin Usage And Synthesis

Uses

15(S)-15-methyl PGF2α methyl ester is a derivative of 15(S)-15-methyl PGF2α with increased membrane permeability. Hydrolysis of the methyl ester in vivo releases the biologically active 15(S)-15-methyl PGF2α, which is a potent uterine stimulant and abortifacient.

Uses

Carboprost Methyl Ester, used in combination with Misoprostol (M368755), can boost human preadipocyte proliferation, glycerolphosphate dehrydogenase (GPDH) up-regulation and lipid accumulation during differentiation. Also, mice treated with Carboprost Methyl Ester showed termination of early pregnancy and peristatic effects. This compound is suitable for pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) related research.

Definition

ChEBI: 15-methyl-15R-PGF2alpha methyl ester is a prostanoid.
