Investigation into subtypes of the prostacyclin and prostaglandin E receptors present in smooth muscle

This thesis describes attempts to characterise prostacyclin (IP) and prostaglandin E (EP) receptors in smooth muscle preparations using agonist potency ranking and susceptibility to receptor blockade. Platelet aggregation is inhibited by prostacyclin analogues through activation of IP-receptors pres...
