NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductase involved in metabolic inactivation of pro- and anti-inflammatory eicosanoids: prostaglandins (PG), leukotrienes (LT) and lipoxins (LX) (PubMed:25619643). Catalyzes with high efficiency the reduction of the 13,14 double bond of 15-oxoPGs, including 15-oxo-PGE1, 15-oxo-PGE2, 15-oxo-PGF1-alpha and 15-oxo-PGF2-alpha (PubMed:25619643). Catalyzes with lower efficiency the oxidation of the hydroxyl group at C12 of LTB4 and its derivatives, converting them into biologically less active 12-oxo-LTB4 metabolites (By similarity) (PubMed:25619643). Reduces 15-oxo-LXA4 to 13,14 dihydro-15-oxo-LXA4, enhancing neutrophil recruitment at the inflammatory site (By similarity). May play a role in metabolic detoxification of alkenals and ketones. Reduces alpha,beta-unsaturated alkenals and ketones, particularly those with medium-chain length, showing highest affinity toward (2E)-decenal and (3E)-3-nonen-2-one (PubMed:25619643). May inactivate 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, a cytotoxic lipid constituent of oxidized low-density lipoprotein particles (By similarity).

PTGR1 also known as Prostaglandin Reductase 1 acts as an enzyme within cellular metabolism. It functions by catalyzing the reduction of prostaglandins namely converting 15-keto-prostaglandins to their respective 1314-dihydro metabolites. PTGR1 has a molecular mass of approximately 35 kDa. This enzyme primarily expresses in liver tissues but it is present in other tissues like the lungs and kidneys as well.
PTGR1 participates in metabolizing prostaglandins which play important roles in inflammation and homeostasis. It does not form part of a larger protein complex but works independently to control the levels of active prostaglandins within cells. This activity regulates physiological processes such as inflammation and vascular tone.
Prostaglandin metabolism involves PTGR1's function. It integrates into the arachidonic acid pathway. Within this pathway PTGR1 interacts with other enzymes such as cyclooxygenases and lipoxygenases orchestrating the catabolism of prostaglandins and related lipid compounds. This coordination maintains the balance of inflammatory responses.
PTGR1 contributes significantly to inflammatory conditions and cancer. Elevated or altered PTGR1 activity associates with various inflammatory diseases due to its role in prostaglandin catabolism. Additionally in some cancer types abnormal prostaglandin levels mediated by PTGR1 affect tumor growth. The enzyme's participation in these processes links it to proteins such as COX-2 which is critical for prostaglandin synthesis and inflammation.
