Product Information
| Description: | Prostaglandin A2 (PGA2) is a endogenous metabolite derived from arachidonic acid, it plays a vital role in the induction of apoptosis. Prostaglandin A2 blocks the cell cycle progression of NIH 3T3 cells at the G1 and G2/M phase. Prostaglandin A2 induces p53-dependent apoptosis. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
