8-iso Prostaglandin F2alpha-d4 (8-iso PGF2alpha) contains four deuterium atoms at the 3, 3′, 4, and 4′ positions. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of 8-iso PGF2alpha by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry. It is an isoprostane produced by the non-enzymatic peroxidation of arachidonic acid in membrane phospholipids. It circulates in human plasma in two different forms - esterified in LDL phospholipids and as the free acid. The ratio of these two forms is approximately 2:1, with a total plasma 8-iso PGF2alpha level of about 150 pg/ml in normal volunteers. In normal human urine, 8-iso PGF2alpha levels are about 180-200 pg/mg of creatinine. 8-iso PGF2alpha is a weak TXA2R (TP receptor) agonist in vascular smooth muscle. Conversely, it inhibits platelet aggregation induced by U-46619 (10-6 M) and I-BOP (3 x 10-7 M) with IC50values of 1.6 x 10-6 M and 1.8 x 10-6 M, respectively.
