- Product Overview:
Asapiprant is an antagonist of the prostaglandin D1 (PGD1) receptor (DP1; Ki = 0.44 nM).{50862} It is selective for DP1 over DP2, as well as the thromboxane A2 (TXA2), prostaglandin I2 (PGI2), and prostaglandin E1-4 (PGE1-4) receptors (Kis = >5,000, >4,800, >6,300, and 120->6,600 nM, respectively). Asapiprant (1 and 3 mg/kg) reduces PGD2-induced increases in nasal resistance in a guinea model of allergic rhinitis. It reduces nasal secretion, when administered at doses of 3 and 30 mg/kg, and antigen-induced cell infiltration in nasal lavage fluids, when administered at 3 and 10 mg/kg, in a guinea pig model of allergic rhinitis induced by ovalbumin. Asapiprant (10 mg/kg) also decreases airway hyperresponsiveness, inflammatory cell infiltration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and mucin production in a rat model of ovalbumin-induced asthma.
Cayman Chemical’s mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.
Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.
Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.
Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
