5-trans-PGE2 (Standard)

5-trans-PGE2 (Standard) is the analytical standard of 5-trans-PGE2. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 5-trans-PGE2 (5-trans Prostaglandin E2) is the active isomer of PGE2 and a potent activator of aromatase. Supplements the process of paracrine signaling between epithelial cells (expressing high levels of PGE2) and surrounding stromal cells (expressing high levels of aromatase) . This process is involved in the growth and development of breast cancer[1].
