Butaprost, a structural analog of PGE2, is a selective agonist for the EP2 receptor subtype. EP2 receptors are expressed on human neutrophils and on respiratory, vascular, and uterine smooth muscle. Butaprost binds with about 1/10 the affinity of PGE2 to the recombinant murine EP2 receptor and does not bind appreciably to the other murine EP receptors or the DP, TP, FP, and IP receptors. Butaprost has frequently been used to pharmacologically define the EP receptor expression profile of various human and animal tissues and cells. Butaprost effectively reduces the subconjunctival scarring response. Given the significance of wound healing modulation in blebs, butaprost's inhibitory effect on subconjunctival Tenon's fibroblasts may be beneficial in managing postoperative scarring in glaucoma surgery.
