One of the most biologically studied of the primary prostaglandins. Closely related to Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in that both prostaglandins are biosynthesized from the same precursors and that PGF2 is the synthetic reduction product of PGE2. Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) is a key enzyme for biosynthesis of PGF2α. Oxytocic; abortifacient.
