In Vitro
MK-447 is a free radical scavenger, reduces the accumulation of the endoperoxide, PGG2 and also enhances the formation of the endoperoxide, PGH2, and other prostaglandins[1]. MK-447 (100 μM) increases the amounts of prostaglandin I2 (PGI2). MK-447 also accelerates endogenous PGI2 generation in the isolated rat aorta[2].
