Prostaglandins have a short life in vivo because NAD+-dependent 15-hydroxy prostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) catalyzes their oxidation to 15-keto metabolites with greatly reduced biological activity.{340} Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are a class of PPARγ agonists that have potent 15-PGDH inhibitory activity.{10583,17925} CAY10638 is a TZD derivative that inhibits 15-PGDH activity with an IC50 value of 31 nM.{17925}
