The analysis of prostaglandin urinary metabolites is valuable for assessing physiological processes and identifying disease biomarkers. These metabolites, derived from the breakdown of prostaglandins, offer a noninvasive means to gauge prostaglandin production and its potential impact on various biological functions. We report an efficient LC-MS method of four commonly analyzed prostaglandin urinary metabolites including tetranor-PGEM (derived from PGE2), tetranor-PGDM, 11β-PGF2α, and 2,3-dinor-11β-PGF2α (derived from PGD2). Each metabolite possesses distinct characteristics and clinical applications, collectively contributing to our understanding of prostaglandin-mediated pathways.

摘要

The analysis of prostaglandin urinary metabolites is valuable for assessing physiological processes and identifying disease biomarkers. These metabolites, derived from the breakdown of prostaglandins, offer a noninvasive means to gauge prostaglandin production and its potential impact on various biological functions. We report an efficient LC-MS method of four commonly analyzed prostaglandin urinary metabolites including tetranor-PGEM (derived from PGE2), tetranor-PGDM, 11β-PGF2α, and 2,3-dinor-11β-PGF2α (derived from PGD2). Each metabolite possesses distinct characteristics and clinical applications, collectively contributing to our understanding of prostaglandin-mediated pathways.
