چکیده
PURPOSE To compare the vasoactive properties of the prostanoids U46619 (thromboxane A2 analogue), prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)), latanoprost free acid, and travoprost free acid in isolated porcine ciliary arteries. METHODS In a myograph system (isometric force measurement), quiescent vessels were exposed (cumulatively) to U46619, PGF(2alpha), latanoprost, or travoprost (0.1 nM-0.1 mM). Experiments were also conducted in the presence of SQ 29548 (TP-receptor antagonist; 3-10 microM) or AL-8810 (FP-receptor antagonist; 3-30 microM). Contractions were expressed as the percentage of 100 mM potassium chloride-induced contractions. RESULTS In quiescent vessels, contractions (concentration-response curves) induced by (0.1 mM) PGF(2alpha) (87.9% +/- 3.5%), U46619 (66.7% +/- 4.1%), and latanoprost (62.9% +/- 3.6%) were more pronounced (P < or = 0.001) than those induced by travoprost (23.0% +/- 4.4%). Concentration-response curves for PGF(2alpha), latanoprost, and travoprost were preceded by a smaller contraction peak (0.1 microM) that was higher (P < or = 0.05) for travoprost (24.4% +/- 2.8%) than for PGF(2alpha) (12.9% +/- 4.6%), but not different (P = 0.58) from latanoprost (22.0% +/- 3.0%). The 50% maximal contraction (PD50: negative log M concentration) of U46619 (-8.05 +/- 0.13) was lower (P < or = 0.001) than those of latanoprost (-5.65 +/- 0.10), PGF(2alpha) (-5.49 +/- 0.14), and travoprost (-5.12 +/- 0.52). Contractions were inhibited (P < or = 0.05-0.001) either by SQ 29548 or AL-8810. CONCLUSIONS In isolated porcine ciliary arteries, all prostanoids tested induced contractions. Among them, travoprost appeared to be the least potent and U46619 the most efficient.

Clinical utility and differential effects of prostaglandin analogs in the management of raised intraocular pressure and ocular hypertension
Prostaglandin analogs (PGA) are powerful topical ocular hypotensive agents available for the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Latanoprost 0.005% and travoprost 0.004% are prodrugs and analogs of prostaglandin F2alpha. Bimatoprost 0.03% is regarded as a prostamide, and debate continues as to whether it is a prodrug. The free acids of all 3 PGAs reduce IOP by enhancing uveosclera...
