A Study of the Action of Prostaglandin F2a on the Guinea-Pig Isolated Trachea
The action of prostaglandin F2a (PGF2a)1 on guinea-pig isolated trachea has been studied. Special emphasis was placed on considerations of the possible beta-adrenergic blocking activities of this essential fatty-acid derivative. | Experiments were performed using a 20 ml tissue bath and a modified …

Reproductive performance of Holstein cows treated with prostaglandin F2a, gonadotropin releasing hormone, and recombinant bovine Somatotropin
The objective of this study was to examine the effects of presynchronization and recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST) on conception rates following a timed insemination (TAI) protocol in lactating dairy cows. A further objective included the evaluation of the efficacy of the Early Conception …

The Effects of Prostaglandin F2a, Oxytocin and Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone on Ejaculate Characteristics in the Dog
Prostaglandin F2a (PGF2a), oxytocin and gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) have been used in bulls, rams, boars, stallions or rodents to increase sperm numbers in the ejaculate. Improving sperm quantity in the canine ejaculate would benefit all assisted reproductive techniques used in this …

Regulation of ovarian oxytocin and prostaglandin F2[alpha] release in the ovine oestrous cycle
… addresses the regulation of ovarian oxytocin and prostaglandin F2a (PGF2a) release in the ovine oestrous cycle, their role in luteolysis and a possible mechanism by which the oxytocin secretory pathway is controlled in ovarian tissue.

Effects of ovokinin on isolated aortas of guinea pigs, normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats
… hypertensive rats were exposed to phenylephrine, prostaglandin F2a, potassium chloride, or bradykinin. Bradykinin contracted guinea pig and spontaneously hypertensive rat aortas, however, it had no effect on normotensive rat aortas. In this study, ovokinin did not exhibit activity in any of the …

NUCLEAR PROGESTIN RECEPTOR REGULATES FERTILITY AND SPAWNING IN FEMALE CICHLID ASTATOTILAPIA BURTONI
… spawning routine. In female cichlids, prostaglandin F2a (PGF2α) drives spawning behaviors. Sensitivity to PGF2α and expression of its receptor, ptgfr, varies across the reproductive cycle. I look to progestin as a potential regulator of PGF2α sensitivity. Increasing progestin levels …

Regulation of duodenal mucosal bicarbonate secretion
… vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, prostaglandin E2, carbachol and theophylline are the chief agonists of duodenal bicarbonate secretion. Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide and prostaglandin E2 act directly via distinct receptors on the duodenal enterocytes, activating adenylate …
