Prostaglandin F<sub>1α</sub> (PGF<sub>1α</sub>) is the putative metabolite of dihomo-<wbr></wbr>γ-<wbr></wbr>linolenic acid (DGLA) <em>via</em> the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway. Both PGF<sub>1α</sub> and PGF<sub>2α</sub> have been shown to act as priming pheromones for male Atlantic salmon with a threshold concentration of 10 PGF<sub>1α</sub> binds to the ovine corpus luteum FP receptor at only 8% of the relative potency of PGF<sub>2α</sub>. It is only half as active as PGF<sub>2α</sub> in inducing human respiratory smooth muscle contractions <em>in vitro</em>.
