Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is biosynthesized in the brain by a lipocalin-type PGD2 synthase where it acts in the CNS to promote sleep induction and lowering of body temperature. PGD2 is also the major eicosanoid product of mast cells and is synthesized in large quantities by a hematopoetic-type PGD synthase during allergic and asthmatic anaphylaxis. Measurement of the parent eicosanoid PGD2 is appropriate in the supernatants of cell cultures, where PGD2 levels may reach several ng/ml, and in CSF, where concentrations of several hundred pg/ml have been measured.
