Prostaglandin F2α receptor (PGF2α receptor). Tiaprost is a PGF2α analogue that acts on the PGF2α receptor to induce luteolysis.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Tiaprost is characterized as a synthetic PGF2α analogue. Its biological activity is primarily assessed through its effects on progesterone levels in vivo rather than through direct in vitro assays.
|
| ln Vivo |
After starting prostatin treatment, plasma progesterone levels drop precipitously after 12 hours and peak at 3.18 nM (1 ng/mL) in 24 hours. Progesterone levels stayed marginally above (cows 1, 3, 5, and 6) or below (cow 2) 3.18 nM over the course of the following several days. The level in cow 4 dropped below 3.18 nM after remaining above it for 17 days. All cows had the lowest progesterone levels ever measured (1 to 2 nM) at term. Individual progesterone levels were unaffected by repeated luteolytic therapy with progestin (cows 1 and 2) or estradiol benzoate 1 (cow 3). Plasma progesterone levels are not markedly raised by intravaginal progesterone-releasing device (PRID) treatment. The amount of total estrogen in plasma doesn't alter much [1].
In vivo, Tiaprost causes a sharp decrease in plasma progesterone levels within 12 hours of initial treatment, reaching approximately 3.18 nM (1 ng/mL) within 24 hours. Progesterone levels remain either slightly above or below this threshold in the following days. At term, all treated cows show the lowest recorded progesterone levels (1 to 2 nM). Repeated luteolytic treatments with Tiaprost have no further influence on individual progesterone levels. Total estrogens in plasma remain generally unchanged. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cell receptor binding assays for Tiaprost are performed using membrane preparations from cells expressing the prostaglandin F2α receptor. Radioligand binding studies are conducted using [³H]PGF2α as a tracer. Membranes are incubated with the radioligand and varying concentrations of Tiaprost (0.001-100 μM). Nonspecific binding is determined with excess unlabeled PGF2α. After incubation at 25°C for 60-90 minutes, bound and free ligand are separated by filtration through glass fiber filters, and radioactivity is measured by scintillation counting. IC₅₀ and Ki values are calculated from competition curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Tiaprost are performed using cell lines expressing the PGF2α receptor, such as luteal cells or transfected HEK-293 cells. Cells are treated with Tiaprost at concentrations ranging from 0.01-100 μM. Receptor activation is measured by intracellular calcium mobilization using fluorescent indicators (e.g., Fluo-4). Inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation is also measured as a functional readout of PGF2α receptor activation. EC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies are conducted in dairy cows. Cows pregnant for 190 to 266 days are treated initially with 0.75 mg of Tiaprost subcutaneously (day 0). Animals are examined clinically, rectally, and vaginally at two- to six-day intervals. Plasma progesterone and total estrogen levels are measured to assess the luteolytic effect. The efficacy of Tiaprost in terminating third-trimester gestations and inducing parturition is evaluated.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Tiaprost has a molecular weight of 396.5 and a molecular formula of C20H28O6S. It is a synthetic PGF2α analogue used in veterinary medicine. The compound is typically stored as a powder at -20°C for up to 3 years or in solvent at -80°C for up to 6 months.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Comprehensive toxicology data for Tiaprost are limited to veterinary use. In cattle, Tiaprost is generally well tolerated at the recommended doses. Potential adverse effects may include local reactions at the injection site. Standard safety pharmacology studies would be required for therapeutic development in other species.

| Additional Infomation |
Thiaprost is a prostaglandin drug.
Tiaprost is a synthetic analogue of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) used in veterinary medicine. It is used as an estrus-synchronizing agent, to treat endometritis, and to induce parturition. Tiaprost induces luteolysis by acting on the PGF2α receptor. It is not approved for human use and is available for research purposes only. |
