Understanding the EP4 Receptor and Its Role in Osteoarthritis Pain:
Galliprant's unique mechanism of action targets the EP4 receptor to alleviate osteoarthritis pain in dogs.
Term | Definition | Function in Osteoarthritis |
Prostaglandins | Hormone-like substances that contribute to inflammation and pain | Trigger the EP4 receptor, leading to pain and inflammation within the joints |
EP4 Receptor | A specific receptor that binds to prostaglandins | When activated, transmits pain signals and contributes to inflammation, exacerbating osteoarthritis symptoms |
Grapiprant | The active ingredient in Galliprant that selectively blocks the EP4 receptor | By blocking the receptor, grapiprant disrupts the pain signaling pathway, providing targeted pain relief with fewer side effects than traditional NSAIDs |
Osteoarthritis | Degenerative joint disease that causes pain, inflammation, and reduced mobility | Results in chronic pain and decreased quality of life for affected dogs |
Indications for Galliprant 20mg Tablets for Dogs:
