The results indicate that in addition to the classic inhibitory DP1 receptor, eosinophils possess a second, novel DP2 receptor that is associated with PGD2-induced cell activation and may play a role in eos inophil recruitment in asthma.

14-Deoxy-Delta(12,14)-prostaglandin D(2) (15d-PGD(2)) is also a potent activator of eosinophils, with an EC(50) about the same as that of PGD( 2), whereas Delta(12)-PGJ( 2) is slightly less potent.

15R-methyl-PGD2 is the most potent known DP2 receptor agonist, and because of its selectivity and resistance to metabolism, should be a useful tool in probing the physiological role of this receptor in inflammatory diseases.

Clustered analysis of F2- and F3-iPs refines assessment of the oxidant stress response to an inflammatory stimulus in vivo by integrating variability in dietary intake of ω-3/ω-6 PUFAs.
Prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) and the Isoprostane, 8,12-iso-Isoprostane F2α-III, Induce Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy

Both PGF2α and 8,12-iso-iPF2α-III induce myocyte hypertrophy via discrete signaling pathways through JNK1 and c-Jun pathways and the hypertrophic effects of these two agonists on cardiomyocytes are additive.
