EP4 receptor agonist-4
EP4 receptor agonist-4 is an orally active, selective EP4 receptor agonist, with a binding IC50 of 18 nM against human receptors, and agonistic EC50 values of 2.1 nM and 0.11 μM against human and murine receptors, respectively. EP4 receptor agonist-4 inhibits hERG channel activity with an IC50 of 10.2 μM. It can be used in the research of inflammatory bowel disease (colitis).

Biological Activity
EP4 receptor agonist-4 (Compound 11a) inhibits LPS (HY-D1056)-induced TNFα release in human whole blood, with an IC50 of 0.039 μM[1].
EP4 receptor agonist-4 inhibits LPS-induced TNFα release in mouse whole blood, with an IC50 of 0.42 μM[1].

EP4 receptor agonist-4 (15-50 mg/kg; p.o.; single administration) induces target-related hemodynamic changes (decreased mean arterial pressure, increased heart rate) in conscious male mice, and systemic exposure saturates EP4 pathway signaling at both tested doses[1].

Animal Model:male (telemetry study); unspecified strain (DSS-induced colitis model)[1]
-
Dosage:15 mg/kg; 50 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; daily for 10 days
-
Result:Attenuated bodyweight loss in DSS-treated mice at 15 and 50 mg/kg.
Reduced colon shortening by 78% compared to vehicle at 50 mg/kg.
Reduced circulating FITC-dextran concentrations, protected the epithelial barrier, and lowered serum TNFα and IL-17A levels (IL-17A reduced by 108% compared to vehicle) at 50 mg/kg.
-
Animal Model:male (telemetry study)[1]
-
Dosage:15 mg/kg; 50 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; single dose
-
Result:Induced a maximum decrease in mean arterial pressure of ~9-12 mmHg (~9-12%) that lasted approximately 20 hours postdose at 15 and 50 mg/kg.
Induced a maximum increase in heart rate of ~150-160 bpm (~21-23%) that lasted approximately 8 hours postdose at 15 and 50 mg/kg.
Left locomotor activity unaffected at 15 and 50 mg/kg.
Reached a mean maximum whole blood concentration of 11.81 μM at 1 hour for the 15 mg/kg dose, and 49.02 μM at 1 hour for the 50 mg/kg dose.
