Overview

**16,16-dimethyl-prostaglandin e2** is a synthetic analog of prostaglandin E2 consisting of two methyl groups at the 16 position. It acts as an agonist at most EP receptor subtypes and is a potent inhibitor of gastric acid secretion and gastrin release. It has been studied for protective effects on gastric mucosa, prevention and healing of ulcers, preservation of hematopoietic stem cell properties, immunosuppressive effects (such as lessening cyclosporine toxicity), and for its anti-inflammatory actions. Experimentally, it induces cervical ripening and uterine contraction, and protects the gastrointestinal lining. It is considered a research chemical and is not approved for clinical use in humans[1][2][4].
