Description

Cicaprost (ZK 96480) is a prostacyclin receptor (IP) agonist. Cicaprost causes a concentration-dependent relaxation of the artery with an EC50 of 5.8 nM [1]

In Vitro

Cicaprost significantly reduces proliferation of human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (HPASMC) stimulated by fetal bovine serum (FBS). Cicaprost displays marked antiproliferative activity at 30 nM[2].
Cicaprost stimulates [3H]cyclic AMP production with EC50 values of 1.5-22 nM, and stimulates [3H]inositol phosphate production (EC50 values 49-457 nM) in all but the SK-N-SH cells[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Proliferation Assay[2]

Cell Line: HPASMC
Concentration: 10 pM, 100 pM, 1 nM, 10 nM, 100 nM, 1 μM, and 10 μM
Incubation Time:
Result: Dose-dependently inhibited proliferation with an EC50 of 24.1 nM.
In Vivo

Cicaprost alters pain perception and inflammatory response in mice lacking prostacyclin receptor. Intravenous injection of Cicaprost (1 μg/kg) causes hypotension of ∼30 mm Hg in anaesthetized wild-type mice[4].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Wild-type (+/+) and IP−/− mice[4]
Dosage: 1 μg/kg
Administration: Intravenous injection
Result: Caused hypotension of ∼30 mm Hg in anaesthetized wild-type mice, whereas there was no change in blood pressure in IP-deficient mice even at 10 μg/kg.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
