Prostaglandin H2 (PGH2), or prostaglandin H2 (PGH2), is a type of prostaglandin and a precursor for many other biologically significant molecules. It is synthesized from arachidonic acid in a reaction catalyzed by a cyclooxygenase enzyme.[2] The conversion from arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H2 is a two-step process. First, COX-1 catalyzes the addition of two free oxygens to form the 1,2-dioxane bridge and a peroxide functional group to form prostaglandin G2 (PGG2).[3] Second, COX-2 reduces the peroxide functional group to a secondary alcohol, forming prostaglandin H2. Other peroxidases like hydroquinone have been observed to reduce PGG2 to PGH2.[4] PGH2 is unstable at room temperature, with a half life of 90-100 seconds,[1] so it is often converted into a different prostaglandin.

Functions of prostaglandin H2:

  • regulating the constriction and dilation of blood vessels
  • stimulating platelet aggregation
    • binds to thromboxane receptor on platelets' cell membranes to trigger platelet migration and adhesion to other platelets.[5]

Effects of aspirin on prostaglandin H2:

  • Aspirin has been hypothesized to block the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin
