Biological Activity
| Targets | DP1/prostanoid DP-receptor |
| ln Vitro | In Th2 cells, BW245C (0.01-1 μM) suppresses TGF-β collagen in a dose-dependent manner. Lung fibroblasts’ intracellular cAMP is likewise increased by BW245C (0.01-1 μM) [3]. The levels needed to raise transendothelial resistance and reduce FITC-dextran permeability in human venous endothelial cells are 0.1-3 μMol/L. Intracellular cAMP levels and necessary protein structure A (PKA) activity are increased by BW245C (0.3 μMol/L) [4]. |
| ln Vivo | In WT mice, BW245C (0.02, 0.2, and 2.0 mg/kg) significantly increased CBF; however, what was the impact of this therapy on DP1? Not present in mice. Following a stroke, functional deficits are lessened by BW245C. After a stroke in WT mice, BW245C greatly reduced the severe decline in locomotor activity and the significant rise in neurological impairments. After receiving a BW245C injection (0.2 mg/kg) one hour post-stroke, WT showed a substantial reduction in cerebral infarction; however, at DP1? //? In mice, this therapy had no discernible effects. CBF is enhanced during and after a stroke by BW245C. When BW245C was administered, the coagulation time was significantly longer than when the vehicle-treated group was given [1]. In guinea pig esophageal epithelial cells, OVA-induced MBP acidification is not substantially increased by BW 245C (100 nM) [2]. |
| Cell Assay | Isolated eosinophils (5 × 105/ml) were kept in RPMI supplemented with 1% FBS and PenStrep and stimulated with 1 μM DK‐PGD2 or BW245c for 18 h at 37°C. Cells were stained with mouse anti‐human CD193 (CCR3)–BV421 and mouse anti‐human CD49d (VLA‐4)‐PE, or the respective isotype controls. Human TruStain FcX (BioLegend) was used as Fc receptor blocking solution. Data were acquired in a BD FACS Canto II[5]. |
| Animal Protocol | To determine if BW245C affects basal cerebral blood flow (CBF), C57BL/6 WT and DP1(-/-) mice were given a single i.p. injection of vehicle or BW245C, and CBF was recorded for 2h. To test the effect of BW245C on stroke, WT and DP1(-/-) mice were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion followed by a single i.p. injection of vehicle or 0.02, 0.2, or 2.0-mg/kg BW245C immediately before reperfusion. Functional and anatomical outcomes were determined at 96h. We also determined the effect of BW245C on CBF in peri-infarct and core during occlusion and reperfusion. Furthermore, we tested the effect of BW245C on bleeding time and ex vivo coagulation. BW245C treatment increased the basal CBF significantly in WT but not in DP1(-/-) mice. The BW245C treatment also significantly improved functional outcome and lowered infarction volume. The multisite CBF monitoring by laser-Doppler flowmetry shows that BW245C significantly increased the CBF in peri-infarct, with a significant inverse correlation between infarction and CBF. The significantly higher infarction volume in DP1(-/-) mice remained unchanged with BW245C treatment. Moreover, BW245C preserves hemostasis in non-stroke conditions. Combined, these data suggest that the DP1 receptor is an endogenous target that can rescue the brain following stroke by regulating CBF and hemostasis[1]. |
