How to use

In Vitro:

Beraprost sodium (0.1, 1.0, and 10.0 μM; 24 hours) treatment leads to a significant increase in the number of tube formation, BPS plays an important role on angiogenic activity. Beraprost sodium (0.1, 1.0, and 10.0 μM; 24 hours) treatment let VE-cadherin at regions of cell–cell contact becomes more abundant and the morphology of endothelial cells tends to be normal compared with those cultured under hypoxia conditions.

In Vivo:

Beraprost sodium (oral adminstration; 0.6 mg/kg; once daily; 3 or 7 days) can mitigate the development of renal interstitial fibrosis, decrease renal oxidative stress through its potential vasodilation effect, and further prevent renal interstitial fibrosis.
