RESUMO
This paper presents the classification of prostaglandins and their receptors. The ocular distribution of the receptors and the effects of their agonists are presented. The efficacy in lowering intraocular pressure of different prostaglandins and their derivatives, especially the PGF2a group, is discussed. The history of latanoprost development is also presented. Good therapeutic index characterises two antiglaucomatous PG-derivatives: latanoprost and unoprostone.
