PGA1 (Prostaglandin A1) is an anti-inflammatory cyclopentenone prostaglandin, biosynthesized from dihomo-γ-linolenic acid. PGA1 (Prostaglandin A1) was originally discovered as a dehydration product of PGE1 (sc-201223). PGA1 (Prostaglandin A1) may act to cause renal vasodilation, stimulate renin release, inhibit NFκB activation, activate PPARs, and induce thermotolerance through modulation of heat shock protein 70. Furthermore, PGA1 (Prostaglandin A1) may act to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells with an IC50 = 7.5 μM for human ovarian cell cultures.
