Isoprostane (8-iso PGF2?) is prostaglandin-like compound formed in vivo from the free radical-catalyzed peroxidation of essential fatty acids without the direct action of cyclooxygenase enzymes. Measurement of the concentration of isoprostane in blood or urine is now a well-established method for the diagnostic assessment of oxidative stress.
