Prostaglandins and the contractile effect of angiotensin i and ii in the uterus isolated from ouariectomized rats. influence*of indo methacin and 17-β estradiol
The purpose of the present study was to explore whether, the stimulating contractile action of angiotensin II (AII) or of angiotensin I (AI), in uterine strips isolated from rats, either spayed or spayed and injected with 17-β estradiol, was somehow linked to tissue generated prostaglandine (PGs).
