Peroxisomal chain-shortening of thromboxane B2: evidence for impaired degradation of thromboxane B2 in Zellweger syndrome
We have shown that rat liver peroxisomes can chain-shorten prostaglandins to dinor- and tetranor-metabolites. In a recent in vivo study we could demonstrate that peroxisomes are of major importance for chain-shortening of prostaglandin F2 alpha in humans (1991, Diczfalusy et al. J. Clin. Invest. 88:...
