The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- There are four known receptors which mediate various but often different cellular and tissue responses to PGE2: prostaglandin EP1 receptor, prostaglandin EP2 receptor, prostaglandin EP3 receptor, and prostaglandin EP4 receptor.
- Sulprosotone binds to and activates the prostaglandin EP3 receptor with far greater efficacy than the other PGE2 receptors and also has the advantage of being relatively resistant, compared with PGE2, to becoming metabolically degraded.
- It is listed as a comparatively weak receptor agonist of the prostaglandin EP1 receptor.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Sulprostone article was read about 1,400 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 48 and blocks with 16: each hit it takes is cut by 6 %.
