Description

Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is one of the major prostaglandins produced from arachidonic acid via the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway. It is produced by mast cells, alveolar macrophages, Th2 cells, dendritic cells, and other cell types, and plays widespread roles in the central nervous system, the immune system, and allergic reactions.
