Product Description
15-Hydroxy Lubiprostone is a halogenated (16,16-difluoro), bioactive lipid and a prostaglandin E analog with the potential to be used as a chloride channel opener for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorder.
15-Hydroxy Lubiprostone is a halogenated (16,16-difluoro) bioactive lipid and a prostaglandin E analog. It is an active metabolite of lubiprostone, a chloride channel opener used for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. As a prostaglandin E1 derivative, 15-hydroxy lubiprostone retains the chloride channel-opening activity of the parent compound and has the potential to be used as a therapeutic agent for gastrointestinal disorders. The compound is also used as a reference standard for analytical method development and quality control in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
15-Hydroxy Lubiprostone acts as a chloride channel opener, specifically targeting the type 2 chloride channel (ClC-2) in the gastrointestinal tract. By opening these channels, the compound increases chloride ion secretion into the intestinal lumen, which promotes fluid secretion and enhances gastrointestinal motility. This mechanism is responsible for the laxative effects of lubiprostone and its metabolites in the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation and irritable bowel syndrome with constipation. The compound is a prostaglandin E analog with biological activity similar to the parent compound.
ln Vitro
15-Hydroxy Lubiprostone is the active metabolite of lubiprostone and retains chloride channel-opening activity. As a prostaglandin E analog, it activates ClC-2 chloride channels in intestinal epithelial cells, leading to increased chloride and fluid secretion. The compound's activity has been characterized in various in vitro models of intestinal epithelial function. Its potency and efficacy in stimulating chloride secretion are comparable to the parent compound. The metabolite contributes to the overall pharmacological effect of lubiprostone therapy.
ln Vivo
As an active metabolite of lubiprostone, 15-hydroxy lubiprostone contributes to the in vivo pharmacological effects of the parent drug. Following oral administration of lubiprostone, the compound is metabolized to 15-hydroxy lubiprostone, which retains chloride channel-opening activity. The metabolite, along with the parent compound, mediates the therapeutic effects on gastrointestinal motility and fluid secretion. In clinical use, lubiprostone is effective for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation and irritable bowel syndrome with constipation.
Enzyme Assay
As a reference standard and metabolite, 15-hydroxy lubiprostone is used in analytical method development and validation rather than in primary pharmacological assays. However, chloride channel activity can be assessed using electrophysiological techniques such as Ussing chamber studies with intestinal epithelial monolayers. The compound's ability to stimulate chloride secretion is measured by monitoring short-circuit current changes. Standard pharmacological assays for prostaglandin E analogs may also be employed.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays for 15-hydroxy lubiprostone typically employ intestinal epithelial cell lines such as T84 or Caco-2 cells grown on permeable supports to form polarized monolayers. Chloride secretion is measured in Ussing chambers by monitoring short-circuit current (Isc) in response to compound addition. Alternatively, fluorescent chloride-sensitive dyes can be used to measure intracellular chloride levels. The compound's activity is compared with the parent compound lubiprostone. Concentration-response curves are generated to determine potency and efficacy.
Animal Protocol
In vivo activity of 15-hydroxy lubiprostone is evaluated in animal models of gastrointestinal motility and constipation, such as rodent models of loperamide-induced constipation. The compound would be administered orally or intraperitoneally, and gastrointestinal transit time, fecal output, and intestinal fluid content would be measured. However, as 15-hydroxy lubiprostone is a metabolite rather than a primary therapeutic agent, most in vivo data are derived from studies with the parent compound lubiprostone.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
15-Hydroxy Lubiprostone has molecular formula C20H34F2O5 and molecular weight 392.48. It is the 15-hydroxy metabolite of lubiprostone, formed by metabolic reduction of the 15-keto group. As an active metabolite, it contributes to the overall pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of lubiprostone. The compound is used as a reference standard for analytical method development, method validation, and quality control applications in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for 15-hydroxy lubiprostone are generally derived from studies of the parent compound lubiprostone. As a prostaglandin E analog, potential adverse effects may include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and headache. The compound should be handled with appropriate laboratory safety precautions. As an active pharmaceutical ingredient metabolite, its safety profile is well-characterized through the clinical development of lubiprostone.
Additional Infomation
15-Hydroxy Lubiprostone is an active metabolite of lubiprostone, a FDA-approved drug for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation and irritable bowel syndrome with constipation. The compound is used as a reference standard for analytical method development and quality control in pharmaceutical manufacturing. It is a halogenated bioactive lipid and prostaglandin E analog with chloride channel-opening activity.
