Chiral HPLC methods have been developed to separate the enantiomeric pairs. Enantiomers of natural prostaglandins can be used as analytical standards to verify the enantiopurity of synthetic prostaglandins, or as biomarkers to study oxidation processes in vivo. Keywords: preparation; ent-PGF2α; ent-PGF1α; ent-PGE2; ent-PGE1; chiral HPLC; enantiomeric separation; mirror images; enantiopurity 1. Introduction Interest in the field of prostaglandins has been steadily growing since the basic work of Bergström Samuelsson, and Vane [1–3]. Their discoveries revealed the structure, the enzyme-controlled biochemical synthesis from arachidonic acid, and the main physiological effects of prostaglandins as well as their related substances.

Classen‡, Varinder K. Aggarwal* School of Chemistry, University of Bristol, Cantock’s Close, Bristol, BS8 1TS, U.K. Supporting Information Placeholder ABSTRACT: The veterinary drug Alfaprostol and prostaglandin PGF2 have been synthesized in just 9 steps. The strategy involved the conjugate addition of an alkyne to a bicyclic enal, available in three steps by a proline-catalyzed aldol reaction of succinaldehyde. In the case of Alfaprostol, this resulted in the shortest synthesis reported to date. For PGF2 this approach improved our previous route by making the 1,4-addition and ozonolysis more operationally simple.

  • Current Knowledge on the Multifactorial Regulation of Corpora Lutea Lifespan: the Rabbit Model
    animals Review Current Knowledge on the Multifactorial Regulation of Corpora Lutea Lifespan: The Rabbit Model Massimo Zerani , Angela Polisca *, Cristiano Boiti and Margherita Maranesi Dipartimento di Medicina veterinaria, Università di Perugia, via San Costanzo 4, 06126 Perugia, Italy; [email protected] (M.Z.); [email protected] (C.B.); [email protected] (M.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Corpora lutea (CL) are temporary endocrine structures that secrete progesterone, which is essential for maintaining a healthy pregnancy. A variety of regulatory factors come into play in modulating the functional lifespan of CL, with luteotropic and luteolytic effects. Many aspects of luteal phase physiology have been clarified, yet many others have not yet been determined, including the molecular and/or cellular mechanisms that maintain the CL from the beginning of luteolysis during early CL development. This paper summarizes our current knowledge of the endocrine and cellular mechanisms involved in multifactorial CL lifespan regulation, using the pseudopregnant rabbit model. Abstract: Our research group studied the biological regulatory mechanisms of the corpora lutea (CL), paying particular attention to the pseudopregnant rabbit model, which has the advantage that the relative luteal age following ovulation is induced by the gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH). CL are temporary endocrine structures that secrete progesterone, which is essential for maintaining a healthy pregnancy. It is now clear that, besides the classical regulatory mechanism exerted by Citation: Zerani, M.; Polisca, A.; prostaglandin E2 (luteotropic) and prostaglandin F2α (luteolytic), a considerable number of other Boiti, C.; Maranesi, M. Current effectors assist in the regulation of CL. The aim of this paper is to summarize our current knowledge Knowledge on the Multifactorial of the multifactorial mechanisms regulating CL lifespan in rabbits.
