Prostaglandin Bx (PGBx) is an oligomer of PGB1 and 15-keto-PGB, which exhibits mitochondrial protective efficacy. Prostaglandin Bx promotes the neurological recovery in rabbits ischemic spinal cord injury model, and maintains the integrity of the gastric mucosa through inhibition of gastric acid secretion in rat gastric ulcer model[1][2].
