| Bioactivity | DG-041 is a potent, high affinity and selective EP3 receptor antagonist with IC50s of 4.6 nM and 8.1 nM in the binding and FLIPR assay, respectively. DG-041 inhibits PGE2 facilitation of platelet aggregation. DG-041 crosses the blood-brain barrier[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | DG-041 was a less potent antagonist of the DP1 (IC50=131 nM), EP1 (IC50=486 nM), and TP receptors (IC50=742 nM)[1]. | ||||||||||||
| In Vivo | DG-041 (1.78 mg/kg for intravenous or 9.62 mg/kg for oral) has t1/2 of 2.7 hours, 4.06 hours and Cmax of 9.46 μM, 2.74 μM for intravenous and oral administration, respectively. DG-041 has CL of 1250 mL/h/kg for intravenous[1]. Animal Model: | ||||||||||||
