:PGG2
Description:
PGG2, or Prostaglandin G2, is a chemical compound classified as a prostaglandin, which are lipid compounds derived from fatty acids and have diverse hormone-like effects in animals. It is primarily involved in various physiological processes, including inflammation, blood flow regulation, and the modulation of immune responses. PGG2 is characterized by its unstable nature, often rapidly converting to other prostaglandins, such as PGH2, through enzymatic reactions. This compound is typically synthesized in the body from arachidonic acid via the action of cyclooxygenase enzymes. PGG2 plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of other prostaglandins and thromboxanes, which are important mediators in cardiovascular and inflammatory responses. Due to its biological significance, PGG2 is of interest in pharmacological research, particularly in the context of anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug development. However, its instability and rapid conversion to other forms can complicate its study and application in therapeutic contexts.

Prostaglandin G2
CAS:Formula:C20H32O6Purity:>95%Color and Shape:In solution, AcetoneMolecular weight:368.47Prostaglandin G2
CAS:<p>Prostaglandin G2 (PGG2) serves as the initial stable intermediate in the COX pathway, identifiable and characterizable due to its stability. This compound is identified as the C-15 hydroperoxide derivative of PGH2. Typically, PGG2 undergoes rapid metabolism via the inherent peroxidase activity of both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, resulting in the production of PGH2. PGH2 is crucial as it is the primary precursor for the generation of 2-series prostaglandins and thromboxanes.</p>Formula:C20H32O6Color and Shape:SolidMolecular weight:368.5
