Biochem/physiol Actions

MK-0524 is a potent and selective prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) receptor PTGDR (DP1) antagonist with inverse agonist activity (Ki = 570 pM/DP1, 2.95 nM/TP, 745 nM/DP2, >890 nM for EP1/2/3/4, FP and IP). MK-0524 inhibits cAMP accumulation in PGD2-challenged human platelets (IC50 = 90 pM) and blocks PGD2-induced nasal congestion in a sheep allergic rhinitis model in vivo (by 99% at 0.1 mg/kg i.v.). MK-0524 decreases DP1-dependent basal cAMP level in HEK293 (1-100 nM) without affecting DP1-dependent basal ERK1/2 phosphorylation (up to 1 μM).
Potent and selective prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) receptor PTGDR (DP1) antagonist with inverse agonist activity in vitro and in vivo.

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a major reason for stopping or changing anticancer therapy. Among the proposed pathomechanisms underlying CIPN, proinflammatory processes have attracted increasing attention. Here we assessed the role of prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) signaling in cisplatin-induced neuropathic pain.
