A Novel Series of Selective Agonists Evaluated against Rattus Norvegicus EP4 Receptor

Application notes


  • Cayman scientists deliver KMN-159, a novel, selective EP4 receptor agonist with lower entropic costs of binding and increased affinity than other known agonists.​
  • ​KMN-159 was identified from a series of stereoisomerically pure EP4 receptor-selective agonists evaluated by docking onto a rat EP4 receptor model using AutoDock and Schrödinger.
  • Continued development of novel, selective EP4 agonists will further elucidate the role of this receptor and aid in the identification of novel therapeutics for bone growth, cardiovascular function, and disease.​
