Identification of metabolites from peroxisomal beta-oxidation of prostaglandins.

We have recently shown that isolated rat liver peroxisomes can chain-shorten prostaglandin F2 alpha and prostaglandin E2 to tetranor-metabolites. In the present report dinor-metabolites of these two prostaglandins were also identified, suggesting that the peroxisomal chain-shortening reaction of pro...
