Prostaglandin A2

Apoptosis Inducer

Prostaglandin A2 (PGA2) is a cyclopentenone prostaglandin that functions as an apoptosis inducer by activating caspase pathways and modulating the p53 signaling pathway. It also activates ERK2 and JNK1/SAPK pathways, contributing to its role in cell death and differentiation. Prostaglandin A2 exhibits antiviral properties against HSV-1 and demonstrates anti-tumor effects, making it relevant in research applications related to colorectal cancer, breast carcinoma, and herpetic keratitis.
