Aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) has been shown to mediate the metabolism of sex hormones and prostaglandin D(2) (PGD(2)), a lipid mediator that promotes skin inflammation in atopic dermatitis (AD). As both have a role in skin function and pathology, we

Activation of the group 2 innate lymphoid cell (ILC2) population leads to production of the classical type 2 cytokines, thus promoting type 2 immunity. Chemoattractant receptor-homologous molecule expressed on TH2 cells (CRTH2), a receptor for prostaglandin D₂ (PGD₂), is expressed

In homogenates of rat cerebral neocortex prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) was found to be quantitatively the main PG biosynthesized by a cytosolic PGD synthetase from endogenously released arachidonic acid. Amounts of 628 ng/g wet weight were found after 30-min incubation periods
