Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  Latanoprost, a clinical drug for treating Primary open-angle glaucoma and intraocular hypertension, effectively ameliorates glucose and lipid disorders in two mouse models of type 2 diabetes. Its treatment improves glucose tolerance. Chronic administration of latanoprost decreases serum lipids and enhances Insulin signalling in white adipose tissue and skeletal musclee. It effectually activates AMPK and regulates glucose and lipid metabolism-relevant genes in diabetic mice.
• In Vitro:
  Latanoprost functioned as both an i Direct activator of AMP-activated protein kinase and a Selective retinoid X receptor α (RXRα) antagonist able to selectively antagonis the transcription of a RXRα/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ heterodime. Latanoprost induced morphological abnormality and viability decline of HCS cells in vitro It induces cell cycle arrest of HCS cells. Latanoprost induces abnormal Changes of plasma membrane, DNA fragmentation and ultrastructural abnormality of HCS cells. Caspase activation in HCS cells is also activated by Latanoprost treatment. Latanoprost induces MTP disruption and quantitative Changes of mitochondrion-associated pro-apoptotic regulators in HCS cell. Latanoprost is effective in inhibiting adipogenesis, reducing lipogenesis, promoting fatty acid oxidation and enhancing GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake both in adipocytes and myotube.
• Cell Research:
  HCS cells were inoculated into a 24-well culture plate (Nunc) and cultured in 10% FBS-DMEM/F12 medium at 37℃n a humidified 5% CO2 incubator. Afte the cells grew into logarithmic phase the culture medium of Each culture plate well was replaced entirely wit the medium containing latanoprost at concentration varying from 50 mg/l to 0.7812 mg/l, respectively the cells were cultured unde the same condition as described earlier, and their morphology and growth status were monitored every 4 h under an Eclipse TS100 inverted microscope.(Only for Reference)
