    Product Description

    9-keto Fluprostenol isopropyl ester is an ester derivative of the FP receptor agonist fluprostenol (Item No. 16768) that is oxidized at carbon 9. It is a potential prodrug to 9-keto fluprostenol (Item No. 16781), which could act as an agonist at EP receptors. It is also a potential metabolite of fluprostenol isopropyl ester (travoprost; Item No. 16769) based on the published metabolism of latanoprost (Item No. 16812) by 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase in the monkey cornea.1 Certain F-series prostaglandins, such as 6-keto prostaglandin F (PGF; Item No. 15210), are converted to the corresponding E-series compounds in isolated human platelets.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
