Injection of prostaglandin E1 is mainly applied to myocardial infarction, heart failure, thrombotic vasculitis, chronic arterial occlusive disease, central retinal vein thrombosis, platelet protection for extracorporeal circulation, arteriography, revascularization surgery. A primary Prostaglandin; easily crystallized from purified biological extracts. Vasodilator (peripheral) Vasodilator;Prostaglandin receptor agonist
  • Production method Sheep seminal vesicles were uesd as raw material for the preparation of PGE crude , with enzyme preparation, incubation, organic solvent extraction, silica gel column separation. The preparation of PGE crude: sheep seminal vesicles [KCl, EDTANa2, PH8] → enzyme suspension [hydroquinone, glutathione] → [arachidonic acid, O2] reaction solution [acetone, ether, methylene chloride] → PGS crude [Separation] → [silica gel] PGE crude Preparation PGE1 finished product: per 1g PGE crude product used 20g silica gel, 10 times the mass of PGE activated silver nitrate silica gel from 200-250 mesh was suspended in expansion agents including: V ethyl acetate : V acetic acid: V petroleum ether: V water = 220: 22.5: 125 : 5 (bp of petroleum ether is 90-120 ℃) , with wet packed column. A small amount of the crude product was dissolved in the same expansion agents, put in the column , eluted. PGE1 and PGE2 were collected . The PGE1 part was put below 35 ℃ to nitrogen concentrating until acetic acid odor was removed, ethyl acetate was added to dissolve, added acid to wash, pH4-5, saline was added to remove silver. The ethyl acetate solution was set in the refrigerator overnight to get finished PGE1 .
  • Description PGE1?(745-65-3) is an endogenous prostaglandin with vasodilatory, anti-platelet, and anti-hypertensive activities.1,2 It is in clinical use for the treatment of erectile dysfunction3 and the emergency management of infants with patent ductus arteriosus4. It has also been used in the treatment of peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAD).5
  • Indications Alprostadil (prostaglandin E1 [PGE1]; Edex, Topiglan) exerts a number of effects, including systemic vasodilation, inhibition of platelet aggregation, and stimulation of intestinal motility. PGE1 relaxes isolated smooth muscle cells contracted by norepinephrine. It has become widely used in the treatment of ED. Alprostadil binds with PGE receptors and results in a cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) mediated smooth muscle relaxation. Little is known about the pharmacokinetics of PGE1, but it is believed that as much as 80% is metabolized in one pass through the lungs. Such rapid degradation probably accounts for its lack of significant cardiovascular side effects when administered intracavernosally. PGE1 can also be metabolized in the penis.
  • Therapeutic Function Vasodilator, Abortifacient, Antihypertensive, Bronchodilator
  • Biological Functions Prostaglandin E1 is produced endogenously to relax vascular smooth muscle and cause vasodilation by activating the adenylate cyclase/cAMP pathway. Recent studies show that the cAMP is important in the PGE1 relaxation of penile erectile tissue and vasodilation of penile resistance arteries. Moreover, agents that stimulate the release of cAMP also crossactivate the NO/cGMP cascade.
  • Clinical Use Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1; Alprostadil) is approved for the intracavernosal (Caverject, Edex)or intraurethral suppository (Muse) treatment of ED. A three-drug combination of PGE1, papaverine, and phentolamine sometimes is used as an intracavernosal injection to achieve a synergistic action. Erectile dysfunction that is medication-induced or caused by endocrine problems, such as hypogonadism or hyper- or hypothyroidism, should be evaluated and appropriately treated before PGE1 treatment is considered.
