GW 627368

GW627368(GW627368X) is a novel, potent and selective competitive antagonist of prostanoid EP4 receptor(Ki= 100 nM) with additional human TP receptor affinity(Ki= 150 nM). IC50 value: Target: EP4 antagonist in vitro: At recombinant human prostanoid EP4 receptors expressed in HEK293 cells, GW627368X produced parallel rightward shifts of PGE2 concentration-effect (E/[A]) curves resulting in an affinity (pKb) estimate of 7.9 +/- 0.4. GW627368X appears to bind to human prostanoid TP receptors but not the TP receptors of other species. In human washed platelets, GW627368X (10 microM) produced 100% inhibition of U-46619 (EC100)-induced aggregation (approximate pA2 approximately 7.0) [1]. in vivo: Oral administration of GW627368X showed significant tumor regression characterized by tumor reduction and induction of apoptosis. Reduction in prostaglandin E2 synthesis also led to reduced level of VEGF in plasma [2].

Investigation of the agonist activity of prostacyclin analogues on prostanoid EP4 receptors using GW 627368 and taprostene: evidence for species differences.[Pubmed:15763441]

Prostaglandins Leukot Essent Fatty Acids. 2005 Apr;72(4):289-99.

The possibility that the prostacyclin analogues AFP-07 and cicaprost relax saphenous vein preparations of pig, guinea-pig and rabbit by simultaneously activating prostanoid EP4 and IP (prostacyclin) receptors was investigated using the high-affinity EP4 antagonist GW 627368. The IP receptor system in each preparation was suppressed with the partial agonist taprostene. The results indicate that AFP-07 and cicaprost are moderately potent EP4 agonists on pig saphenous vein, but much weaker EP4 agonists on guinea-pig saphenous vein. GW 627368 did not antagonise AFP-07- and cicaprost-induced relaxation of rabbit saphenous vein, which contrasts with a previous study using the EP4 blocker AH 23848. However, treatment with taprostene was of less value due to poorer antagonism of the rabbit IP system; this may be related to the presence of a sensitive EP2 relaxant system. Relaxation of each preparation induced by the selective EP2 agonist ONO-AE1-259 was unaffected by GW 627368, with and without taprostene.

1. N-{2-[4-(4,9-diethoxy-1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-benzo[f]isoindol-2-yl)phenyl]acetyl}be nzene sulphonamide (GW627368X) is a novel, potent and selective competitive antagonist of prostanoid EP4 receptors with additional human TP receptor affinity. 2. At recombinant human prostanoid EP4 receptors expressed in HEK293 cells, GW627368X produced parallel rightward shifts of PGE2 concentration-effect (E/[A]) curves resulting in an affinity (pKb) estimate of 7.9 +/- 0.4 and a Schild slpoe not significantly different from unity. The affinity was independent of the agonist used. 4. In rings of phenylephrine precontracted piglet saphenous vein, GW627368X (30-300 nM) produced parallel rightward displacement of PGE2 E/[A] curves (pKb = 9.2 +/- 0.2; slope = 1). 4. GW627368X appears to bind to human prostanoid TP receptors but not the TP receptors of other species. In human washed platelets, GW627368X (10 microM) produced 100% inhibition of U-46619 (EC100)-induced aggregation (approximate pA2 approximately 7.0). However, in rings of rabbit and piglet saphenous vein and of guinea-pig aorta GW627368X (10 microM) did not displace U-46619 E/[A] curves indicating an affinity of < 5.0 for rabbit and guinea-pig prostanoid TP receptors. 5. In functional assays GW627368X is devoid of both agonism and antagonist affinity for prostanoid CRTH2, EP2, EP3, IP and FP receptors. At prostanoid EP1 receptors, GW627368X was an antagonist with a pA2 of 6.0, and at prostanoid IP receptors the compound increased the maximum effect of iloprost by 55%. At rabbit prostanoid EP2 receptors the pA2 of GW627368X was < 5.0. 6. In competition radioligand bioassays, GW627368X had affinity for human prostanoid EP4 and TP receptors (pKi = 7.0 +/- 0.2 (n = 10) and 6.8 (n = 2), respectively). Affinity for all other human prostanoid receptors was < 5.3. 7. GW627368X will be a valuable tool to explore the role of the prostanoid EP4 receptor in many physiological and pathological settings.

GW627368 (GW627368X) is a novel, potent and selective competitive antagonist of prostanoid EP4 receptor with additional human TP receptor affinity, with pKi values of 7.0 and 6.8 for human prostanoid EP4 and TP receptors respectively.
