Description and Uses

Prostaglandin D₂ ethanolamide (PGD₂-EA) is a bioactive lipid produced by the sequential metabolism of anandamide (arachidonoyl ethanolamide; Item Nos. 90050 | 10007270) by cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, in particular by COX-2, and PGD synthase. The biosynthesis of PGD₂-EA from anandamide can also be increased when anandamide metabolism is diminished by deletion of fatty acid amide hydrolase. PGD₂-EA is inactive against recombinant prostanoid receptors, including the D prostanoid receptor. It increases the frequency of miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents in primary cultured hippocampal neurons, an effect which is the opposite of that induced by anandamide. PGD₂-EA also induces apoptosis in colorectal carcinoma cell lines.

PGD₂-EA MaxSpec^® standard is a quantitative grade standard of PGD₂-EA that has been prepared specifically for mass spectrometry and related applications where quantitative reproducibility is required. The solution has been prepared gravimetrically and is supplied in a deactivated glass ampule sealed under argon. The concentration was verified by comparison to an independently prepared calibration standard. The verified concentration is provided on the certificate of analysis. This PGD₂-EA MaxSpec^® standard is guaranteed to meet identity, purity, stability, and concentration specifications and is provided with a batch-specific certificate of analysis. Ongoing stability testing is performed to ensure the concentration remains accurate throughout the shelf life of the product. Note: The amount of solution added to the vial is in excess of the listed amount. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately measure volumes for preparation of calibration standards. Follow recommended storage and handling conditions to maintain product quality.

PGD2 ethanolamide is the COX-2 dependent metabolite of Anandamide that induces apoptosis in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) cells[1].
