This compound contains four deuterium atoms at the 3, 3′, 4, and 4′ positions. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of bimatoprost (free acid) by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry. Bimatoprost (free acid) is a metabolically stable analog of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) and is a potent agonist for the FP receptor. It binds to the FP receptor on ovine luteal cells with a relative potency of 756% compared to that of PGF2α.1 At the rat recombinant FP receptor expressed in CHO cells bimatoprost (free acid) inhibits PGF2α binding with a Ki of 1.1 nM.2 The isopropyl ester of bimatoprost (free acid)-d4 is slightly better than PGF2α isopropyl ester in reducing the intraocular pressure in the cat eye without any irritation.3
