The effect of in vitro incubation with ethanol (10-80 mM) on 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-OH-PGDH) activity was determined in the brain stem (pons and medulla) of the fetal sheep at a mean gestational age of 126 days (term: about 147 days). Enzyme activity was determined by measuring the rate of oxidation of PGE2 to 15-keto-PGE2 using a radiometric assay. There was no statistically significant ethanol-induced inhibition of 15-OH-PGDH activity. The data apparently do not support the hypothesis that acute in vitro exposure to ethanol directly inhibits 15-OH-PGDH activity in the near-term fetal brain stem.
