References [12,31] use human platelet preparations instead of transfected cells. Stable analogues of prostacyclin (e.g. iloprost, carbacyclin, AFP-07) often show potent EP1 agonist and modest EP3 agonism; cicaprost is the most selective IP agonist [15,40]. Treprostinil has high affinity for the DP1 and EP2 receptors with pKi values of 8.36 and 8.44 respectively [76]. IP receptor agonism is generated by the introduction of a diaryl-heteroatomic unit into PGH analogues (e.g. EP-157) and other n-alkylcarboxylic acids (BMY-45778, ONO-1301, MRE-269) often designated as 'non-prostanoid prostacyclin mimetics' [32,43]. MRE 269 is the biologically-active metabolite of the pro-drug, NS304 (ACT-293987) which has the INN selexipag. |

RO-1138452 has similar pA2 values (8.1 - 8.4) for human, guinea-pig and rabbit IP receptors [33]. However, it also has moderately high affinity for imidazoline I2 and PAF receptors [8]. RO-3244794 appears to be more specific [8]. RO-1138452 may behave as a pseudo-irreversible antagonist [5,52]. |
Allosteric Modulator Comments | ||
A positive modulator for the human IP receptor has been reported (the [R] enantiomer of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline derivative IPPAM-1) [83]. |
Immunopharmacology Comments |
Although primarily recognised for vasodilatory and antihypertensive action in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) the importance of PGI2 as an immunomodulatory agent has been investigated more recently. PGI2 regulates both the innate and adaptive immune systems and its effects are thought to be mainly anti-inflammatory or immunosuppressive, which may have implications for clinical use. Note also that the prostacyclin analog, cicaprost, exhibits potent anti-inflammatory activity in human primary immune cells [72]. Papers have appeared on immune responses modulation by PGI2 via IP signaling [87], as well on PGI2 promoting in vivo Th17 differentiation, with possible clinical implications for the use of PGI2 and its analogs in PAH treatment [86]. |

General Comments |
Human IP forms homo-oligomers via disulfide bonds, which might be essential for receptor trafficking to the cell surface [19]. The IP receptor was the first to be described to form heterodimers, most interestingly with its physiologic opponent, the TP receptor, leading to unexpected TP-mediated cAMP formation [28,78-79]. Pharmacological evidence for a second IP receptor, denoted IP2, in the central nervous system [67,73] and in the BEAS-2B human airway epithelial cell line [80] is available. This receptor is selectively activated by 15R-17,18,19,20-tetranor-16-m-tolyl-isocarbacyclin (15R-TIC) and 15R-Deoxy 17,18,19,20-tetranor-16-m-tolyl-isocarbacyclin (15-deoxy-TIC). However, molecular biological evidence for the IP2 subtype is currently lacking. |
