Bioactivity
Lubiprostone (hemiketal) (RU-0211 (hemiketal) ), a selective activator of the chloride channel 2 (CLCN2), facilitates the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation and opioid-induced constipation. It functions by enhancing CLCN2 channel activity, which boosts chloride ion secretion in the intestines, subsequently increasing fluid secretion and improving intestinal peristalsis. Additionally, Lubiprostone (hemiketal) may be utilized in research related to chronic constipation and cancer.
