Disease

SO2A1_HUMAN Defects in SLCO2A1 are the cause of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, primary, autosomal recessive, type 2 (PHOAR2) [MIM:614441. PHOAR2 is a disease characterized by digital clubbing, periostosis, acroosteolysis, painful joint enlargement, and variable features of pachydermia that include thickened facial skin and a thickened scalp. Other developmental anomalies include delayed closure of the cranial sutures and congenital heart disease.^{[1] [2] [3] [4]}

Function

SO2A1_HUMAN May mediate the release of newly synthesized prostaglandins from cells, the transepithelial transport of prostaglandins, and the clearance of prostaglandins from the circulation. Transports PGD2, as well as PGE1, PGE2 and PGF2A.
