Latanoprost
Based on 4 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Latanoprost (PHXA41) is a prostaglandin F2α analogue and can be used for glaucoma research. Latanoprost can effectively pass through cornea and be hydrolyzed by esterase to latanoprost acid. latanoprost acid is an F-prostaglandin (FP) receptor agonist, and can effectively reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor through uvea.

Biological Activity
|
FP Receptor |
Benzalkonium chloride latanoprost (BAK-latanoprost) and 0.02% BAK induce significant apoptosis in the apical layers that correlated with the significant decrease of cell viability. Preservative-free latanoprost (PF-latanoprost) slightly decreases cell viability and few apoptotic cells are found in the superficial layers, without reaching statistical significance compared with PBS[1]. Latanoprost (0.1 μM) significantly increases cell viability as compared with control. Meanwhile, 0.1 μM latanoprost results in the obvious promotion of neurite outgrowth similar to ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and simultaneously increases the levels of p-Akt and p-mTOR expression. Latanoprost can promote neurite outgrowth through an FP receptor-mediated modulation of the PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling pathway[3]. Latanoprost (0.03 or 0.3 μg/mL) and bimatoprost increase MMP-9 activity by 75% ± 27% and 75% ± 24%, respectively, in human CBSM cells[4].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline

Protocol
Cellular viability is evaluated in duplicate at 24 hours with the MTT assay. The 3D-HCEs are transferred to 24-well plates containing 300 μL of MTT solution diluted at 0.5 mg/mL in the culture medium, and 300 μL of the same MTT solution is applied on the apical surface of the 3D-HCEs. Reconstituted tissues are incubated for 3 hours at 37°C. Then they are transferred to 24-well plates containing 750-μL isopropanol, and 750-μL isopropanol is added to the apical surface of the 3D-HCEs. The plates are agitated for 2 hours at room temperature before reading the optical density (OD) at 570 nm versus OD 690 nm. The results are expressed as percentages of cell viability (mean ± SD) compared with the negative control (PBS).
