15-hydroxyprostaglandin-D dehydrogenase (NADP+) activity

Definition

Target type: molecularfunction

Catalysis of the reaction: NADP+ + (5Z,13E)-(15S)-9-alpha,15-dihydroxy-11-oxoprosta-5,13-dienoate = NADPH + H+ + (5Z,13E)-9-alpha-hydroxy-11,15-dioxoprosta-5,13-dienoate. [EC:1.1.1.196, MetaCyc:1.1.1.196-RXN]

15-hydroxyprostaglandin-D dehydrogenase (NADP+) is an enzyme that catalyzes the NADP+-dependent oxidation of 15-hydroxyprostaglandin D2 (PGD2) to 15-keto-PGD2. This reaction is essential for the inactivation of PGD2, a potent pro-inflammatory mediator. PGD2 is produced by mast cells, platelets, and other cells in response to various stimuli, including allergens, infections, and tissue injury. PGD2 exerts its effects through two main receptors: DP1 and DP2. DP1 receptor activation leads to vasodilation and bronchoconstriction, while DP2 receptor activation promotes inflammation and pain. By oxidizing PGD2 to 15-keto-PGD2, 15-hydroxyprostaglandin-D dehydrogenase (NADP+) effectively reduces the levels of this potent mediator, thereby contributing to the resolution of inflammation and the suppression of allergic responses. The enzyme is found in a variety of tissues, including the liver, lung, kidney, and brain. Its activity is regulated by several factors, including the availability of NADPH, the concentration of PGD2, and the expression of the enzyme itself. Mutations in the gene encoding 15-hydroxyprostaglandin-D dehydrogenase (NADP+) have been linked to various diseases, including asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer.'
