Cell experiment:[1]
Cell lines	Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)
Reaction Conditions	0 ~ 10 μM alprostadil
Applications	Alprostadil (1 nM ~ 10 μM; 48 h) concentration-dependently reduced HUVEC proliferation (up to 100% inhibition) in the presence of 20 ng/mL vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), with an IC50 of 400 nM. Alprostadil (0.01 ~ 10 μM; 6 h) also inhibited VEGF-induced HUVEC migration in a concentration dependent manner, with an IC50 of 500 nM.
Animal experiment:[1]
Animal models	Female C57/bl6 mice, 6 ~ 8 weeks of age
Dosage form	20 ng Administered subcutaneously for 4 days
Applications	Alprostadil treatment (20 ng/animal/day; 4 days) significantly inhibited the fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-induced angiogenesis in mice. Alprostadil could be useful for diseases that require anti-angiogenic therapy, such as diabetic retinopathy and solid tumors.
