PGI2 - Prostacyclin / Prostaglandin I2

Abbreviation: PGI2

Type: Prostaglandin / eicosanoid lipid mediator

Function: Short-lived prostaglandin produced primarily by vascular endothelial cells from arachidonic acid through cyclooxygenase and prostacyclin synthase. PGI2 activates the prostacyclin receptor (IP/PTGIR), increases cAMP, promotes vasodilation, inhibits platelet aggregation, and regulates vascular, inflammatory, and immune signaling.

Cancer: ↓ Frequently reduced or functionally suppressed in cancer. PGI2 signaling can inhibit tumor growth, platelet-mediated metastatic dissemination, inflammation, and tumor progression. Increased prostacyclin synthesis or signaling has demonstrated tumor-suppressive and anti-metastatic effects in several experimental cancer models.

Alzheimer's Disease: ↑ Increased or prolonged PGI2 signaling may contribute to disease pathology. Experimental PGI2 overexpression has been shown to increase soluble Aβ42, accelerate amyloid accumulation, disrupt cerebral microvascular architecture, and worsen cognitive impairment in amyloidosis models.
