Background

Prostaglandin-H2 D-isomerase or PGD2 synthase (PTGDS) is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of Prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) to Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2), a prostaglandin involved in smooth muscle contraction/relaxation and a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Prostaglandin D2 synthase is used clinically as a diagnostic marker for Cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea, important in the assessment of head trauma severity. It has been also proposed that the urinary and serum levels pf PTGDS may be also a marker of renal damage in diabetes mellitus and hypertension.
