Background
Prostacyclin (PGI2) is involved in platelet aggregation, vasoconstriction, and reproductive functions. However, PGI2 has a half life of 60 minutes in plasma but only 2 to 3 minutes in buffer. The production of PGI2 is typically monitored by measurement of 6-keto-PGF1alpha. 6-keto-PGF1alpha is produced by the nonenzymatic hydration of PGI2, and has been shown to be stable. A number of pharmaceuticals alter and/or inhibit the synthesis of PGI2. Methods to measure PGI2 in blood and urine typically involve HPLC, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, radioimmunoassay, or enzyme immunoassay.
