Nonenzymatic free radical-catalyzed generation of 15-deoxy-Δ12,14-prostaglandin J2-like compounds (deoxy-J2-isoprostanes) in vivo1

15-Deoxy-Δ12,14-prostaglandin J2 (15-d-PGJ2) is a reactive cyclopentenone eicosanoid generated from the dehydration of cyclooxygenase-derived prostaglandin D2 (PGD2). This compound possesses an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl moiety that can readily adduct thiol-containing biomolecules such as glutathione...
