摘要：D2/E2-isoprostanes are prostaglandin D2/E2-like compounds that are produced in vivo as non-enzymatic products of free radical catalyzed peroxidation of arachidonic acid. One E2-isoprostane that should be formed is 15-E2t-isoprostane (8-iso-prostaglandin E2). 15-E2t-isoprostane has been shown to exert potent biological activity but proof that it is formed in vivo is lacking. Evidence is now presented that 15-E2t-isoprostane is formed in vivo by demonstrating that an endogenous E2-isoprostane with a retention time on capillary GC identical with that of 15-E2t-isoprostane co-chromatographs through four high resolving HPLC purification procedures with authentic radiolabeled 15-E2t-isoprostane.—Morrow, J.
