“Administration of 16,16-dimethyl PGE2 , a long acting derivative of PGE2, or indomethacin, but not 16,16-dimethyl PGF2 alpha, a long acting derivative of PGF2 alpha, significantly depressed the increase in the serum transaminase activities induced by D-galactosamine.”
“These results indicate that PGE2 has a cytoprotective effect against the D-galactosamine induced liver injury and suggest that the protective effect of indomethacin is ascribable to its suppression of synthesis of PGs other than PGE2 or PGF2 alpha, e.g., PGD2.”
