Description and Uses

Prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) is present in numerous species and has a widespread distribution. It can cause smooth muscle contraction in the vascular, bronchial, intestinal, and myometrial regions, and has potent luteolytic activity. PGF2α exerts its physiological effects through receptor mediation, with maximal ovine myometrial contraction being achieved at 125 nM PGF2α in vitro, and its receptor-mediated activity is most potent at 50-100 nM. Studies have also shown that PGF2α inhibits nitric oxide production in uterine tissue, enhances uterine contractility, and exhibits potent luteolytic activity. Furthermore, PGF2α functions as an activator of PGF2αR.

Prostaglandin F2α is one of the most biologically studied of the primary prostaglandins. Closely related to Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in that both prostaglandins are biosynthesized from the same precursors and that PGF2 is the synthetic reduction product of PGE2.
