TXA2, like most lipid mediators, is not a circulating hormone. It is formed in response to local stimuli and exerts its effects within a short distance of its biosynthesis. TXA is rapidly hydrolyzed non-enzymatically COOH 2 O to form thromboxane B2 (TXB2). Although it is common to estimate TXA2 levels TXA OH by measuring TXB2, most of the TXB2 measured is due to ex vivo platelet 2 activation or intra-renal production. Measurement errors are compounded Non-enzymatic by the fact that normal concentrations of circulating TXB are extremely low 2 OH (1-2 pg/ml), and highly transient (t = 5-7 minutes). To circumvent this problem, ½ COOH it is necessary to measure a metabolite that cannot be formed by platelets or HO O by the kidney. TXB2 may be metabolized by 11-hydroxy TX dehydrogenase OH TXB2 to form 11-dehydro TXB2, or by β-oxidation to form 2,3-dinor TXB2. Infusion 11-hydroxy TX dehydrogenase β-oxidation studies using TXB2 have shown that both metabolites are formed equally, although 11-dehydro TXB2 has a longer circulating half-life (t½ = 45 minutes). OH Therefore, measurement of 11-dehydro TXB2 in plasma or urine will give a OH COOH COOH time-integrated indication of TXA2 production. The circulating half-life of O 2,3-dinor TXB2 is shorter (t = 15 minutes). Therefore, measurement of O HO O ½ OH 2,3-dinor TXB will give a more episodic indication of TXA production.

This PGD2 accumulates in the cerebrospinal PGH2 OH fluid (CSF), where it induces physiologic sleep in rats and humans. PGD2 is also PGD Synthase synthesized in mast cells and leukocytes by a cellular, myeloid-type, glutathione- OH dependent PGD synthase. This PGD2, which is formed in intracellular and vascular COOH compartments, is rapidly metabolized to O OH 11β-PGF2α. Thus, urinary measurements PGD2 of PGD2 synthesis are most appropriately focused on the measurement of 11β-PGF2α. Measurement of the parent eicosanoid PGD2 is appropriate in the supernatants OH of cell cultures, where PGD2 levels may reach several ng/ml, and in CSF, where COOH concentrations of several hundred pg/ml HO have been measured.
