About 30 analogues of BAPTA-AM, a potential antithrombotic agent, have been synthesized and tested for their effect on the production of prostacyclin.None of them was found to be a better enhancher of the production of prostacyclin by aortic endothelial cells than BAPTA-AM itself.The enhancing effect can be produced by compounds unable to chelate Ca2+, thus confirming that it is not related to their buffering capacity for free Ca2+.
