13,14 dihydro 15 keto prostaglandin e1

13,14-dihydro-15-keto Prostaglandin E1 inhibits ADP-induced platelet aggregation in human isolated platelet-rich plasma (IC50=14.8 μg/mL) and is a PGE1 metabolite.

Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), though not predominantly found in nature, plays a significant role in clinical treatments, addressing conditions such as peripheral occlusive vascular disease, erectile dysfunction, and neonatal cardiology issues. The metabolism of PGE1 primarily begins with the oxidation at C-15, producing 13,14-dihydro-15-keto PGE1 as its major metabolite. Alternatively, inhibiting this pathway or overwhelming it with too much PGE1 could potentially enhance the production of 2,3-dinor metabolites, like 2,3-dinor PGE1, though their biological activities remain unreported. Cayman Chemical stands out as a prominent provider of prostaglandins and their metabolites, uniquely manufacturing 2,3-dinor PGE1.
