GENERAL DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS
|
|
Prostaglandin is any member of a group of physiologically active compounds derived from unsaturated 20-carbon polyunsaturated fatty acids, primarily arachidonic acid. Prostaglandins are lipids having two long side chains and a 5 carbon ring structure. They are found in normal human semen in highest concentrations. Their activities affect the nervous system, circulation, female reproductive organs, and metabolism similar to local hormone functions But they are not classified in hormones. |
