The modulation of the prostaglandin-induced (E1, E2, F2alpha) motility of the large intestine by the adrenergic system.
The effect of adrenergic stimulating and inhibiting drugson the prostaglandin-dependent colonmotility in man was examined. By stimulating the adrenergic beta-receptors the prostaglandin-induced contractions were reduced and finally eliminated...
