Product Overview:
Prostaglandin D synthase (PGDS) is a glutathione-dependent enzyme and member of the sigma class of glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) that catalyzes the conversion of PGH2 (Item No. 17020) to PGD2 (Item No. 12010), an eicosanoid that has numerous biological functions, including vasorelaxation, recruitment of inflammatory cells, and inhibition of platelet aggregation.{13033,24779,57198} There are two types of PGDS: lipocalin PGDS (L-PGDS; Item Nos. 10006788
10006787
10010548) and hematopoietic PGDS (H-PGDS; Item Nos. 10006593
10004347).{57198} H-PGDS is found in peripheral tissues and immune cells, including Th2 cells, antigen-presenting cells, mast cells, megakaryocytes, and eosinophils, where it is localized to the cytosol.{24779} H-PGDS activity is increased by a variety of stimuli, including LPS, anti-IgE antibodies, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA; Item No. 10008014), ionomycin (Item No. 10004974), and inflammatory cytokines such as IL-13, IL-3, or IL-4.{57198} siRNA silencing of Hpgds decreases LPS-induced production of PGD2 in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs).{25435} Transgenic overexpression of HPGDS in mice increases croton oil-induced ear swelling and PGD2 production, and genome-wide deletion of Hpgds exacerbates hypotension and vascular permeability in a mouse model of anaphylaxis.{57266,57267} H-PGDS protein levels are increased in the nasal mucosa of patients with allergic rhinitis, and HPGDS SNPs have been found in individuals with asthma.{57198,13033} Cayman's Prostaglandin D Synthase (hematopoietic-type; human, recombinant) can be used for enzyme activity assays.

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
