Δ17-6-keto Prostaglandin F1α (Δ17-6-keto PGF1α), a cyclooxygenase (COX) metabolite produced from eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) in a variety of tissues including seminal vesicles, lungs, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and ocular tissues, alongside other 3-series COX products from EPA such as PGF3α, PGE3, and thromboxane B3, is potentially linked to a lower occurrence of glaucoma in individuals consuming a marine-rich (EPA-rich) diet.
17-phenyl trinor-13,14-dihydro Prostaglandin A2 is a synthetic analog of prostaglandin with relatively unexplored biological activity. Similarly structured, particularly in its lower side chain, to the PGF2α analog latanoprost, which is an approved glaucoma treatment, this compound presents an interesting subject for further pharmaceutical research and potential therapeutic applications.
1a,1b-Dihomo Prostaglandin F2α (1a,1b-dihomo PGF2α), a hypothetical product of adrenic acid in the COX pathway, is predominantly synthesized in the renal medulla, reflecting the selective distribution of adrenic acid in this region.
1-Oleoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PG (sodium salt), a lysophospholipid with oleic acid (18:1) at the sn-1 position, finds application in creating micelles, liposomes, and various artificial membranes, notably in lipid-based drug delivery systems.
