Abstract

Analogs 8-aza-16-aryl prostaglandin E 1 (PGE 1) and 8-aza-5-thia-16-arylPGE 1 were synthesized and evaluated with respect to their subtype receptor affinity and EP4 agonist activity for the purposes of identifying subtype-selective EP4 agonists that demonstrate oral efficacy. Using an inhibition assay of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α production in rats, representative compounds were evaluated for their ...
