Prostaglandin D2 reduces intraocular pressure.
When PGD2 was topically applied to the rabbit eye a reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) was observed within 30 min. The IOP reduction lasted throughout the observation period of 7 hours. No increase of IOP was observed during the period. The effect of PGD2 was dose-dependent (0.4 microgram to 250 micrograms), and the minimum effective dose was estimated to be 2.0 micrograms. The application...
متن کاملProstaglandin metabolism and intraocular pressure.
The plasma lipid alterations characteristic of essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) generally appear one to two weeks after the initiation of fat free parenteral nutritional (PN), and may be associated with a reduction in prostaglandin (PG) formation. In the present study the relationship between exclusion of fat from the diet and changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) and PGE2 plasma levels w...
متن کاملProstaglandin synthesis, inhibition, and intraocular pressure.
Arachidonic acid, a precursor of prostaglandin E!} administered topically to rabbit and monkey eyes in concentrations of 0.2 to 20 per cent, or intravenously to rabbits in doses of 10 to 20 mg., produced a significant elevation of intraocular pressure. A dose-response relationship was demonstrated. Facility of outflow and anterior chamber aqueous protein were significantly higher in eyes treate...
