15(R)-Iloprost;6,9ALPHA-METHYLENE-11ALPHA,15R-DIHYDROXY-16-METHYL-PROSTA-5E,13E-DIEN-18-YN-1-OIC ACID;Pentanoic acid, 5-[(3aS,4R,5R,6aS)-hexahydro-5-hydroxy-4-[(1E,3R)-3-hydroxy-4-methyl-1-octen-6-ynyl]-2(1H)-pentalenylidene]-, (5E)- (9CI)
Iloprost is a second generation structural analog of prostacyclin (PGI2) with about ten-fold greater potency than the first generation stable analogs, typified by carbaprostacyclin. Iloprost binds with equal affinity to the recombinant human IP and EP receptors with a Ki of 11 nM. 15(R)-Iloprost is the “unnatural” or inverted C-15 epimer of iloprost. This transformation frequently attenuates the biological agonist activity of prostaglandin analogs by several orders of magnitude. There are no literature reports of the biological activity of 15(R)-iloprost.
