Carbaprostacyclin is a stable analog of prostacyclin (prostaglandin I2) which can activate the prostacyclin receptor or PPARδ.1,2,3 Carbaprostacyclin methyl ester is a more lipid soluble form of carbaprostacyclin. As a result, it may more readily enter cells to activate PPARδ. The biological activities of carbaprostacyclin methyl ester have not been studied. | [References]
