Prostanoid Agonists and Antagonists: Differentiation of Prostanoid Receptors in the Gut

  • Chapter
The Prostaglandin System

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Study Institutes Series ((ASIAS))

Abstract

Prostaglandin (PG) E and F compounds have been studied extensively on gastrointestinal muscle from several species, and various antagonists of their actions have been examined (see Ref. 1). However, less is known of the effects of the numerous other substances which can also be formed from arachidonic acid and other C20-unsaturated fatty acids.
