Description: Potent and selective EP2 receptor antagonist
Chemical Name: 1-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)-3-[[(6-methoxy-2-naphthalenyl)oxy]methyl]-3-azetidinecarboxylic acid
Purity: ≥98% (HPLC)
Biological Activity for PF 04418948
PF 04418948 is a potent prostaglandin E receptor 2 antagonist (PTGER2; EP2; IC50 = 16 nM for human EP2 receptors), which displays over 2000-fold selectivity for EP2 receptors over EP1, EP3, EP4, DP1 amd CRTH2 receptors and exhibits <30% binding at a diverse panel of GPCRs and ion channels at a concentration of 10 μM. PF 04418948 inhibits PGE2-induced increases in intracellular cAMP in vitro and reverses PGE2-invoked relaxation of mouse trachea (IC50 = 2.7 nM).

Cardiovascular Poster
Cardiovascular disease remains one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in the Western world and therefore this therapeutic area continues to be of great interest to researchers. This poster highlights the key GPCRs regulating vascular reactivity.
Pain Poster
Peripheral sensitization is the reduction in the threshold of excitability of sensory neurons that results in an augmented response to a given external stimulus. This poster outlines the excitatory and inhibitory signaling pathways involved in modulation of peripheral sensitization. The role of ion channels, GPCRs, neurotrophins, and cytokines in sensory neurons are also described.
