Prostaglandin D2 is the major prostaglandin of arachidonic acid metabolism in rat bone marrow homogenate.
Homogenate of bone marrow of male rat was incubated with 14C-arachidonic acid and with 14C-prostaglandin H2. The major prostaglandin produced during each incubation was prostaglandin D2, which was identified by thin-layer chromatography, autoradiography and chemical reduction.
