[Endogenous production of prostaglandins E and F2-alpha in cerebral and extracerebral vessels of cats and its change under the effect of noradrenaline].
The quantitative determination of prostaglandins (PG) E and F2 alpha has been carried out in isolated cerebral and extracerebral vessels of cats. It has been found that the basal production of PG predominates in cerebral vessels, the content of PGF2 alpha prevailing compared to PGE. The incubation of isolated vessels with noradrenaline causes a decrease in production of vasopressor PGF2 alpha with a simultaneous considerable increase in the content of vasodepressor PGE. The changes indicated are especially clearly seen in the cerebral vessels. It is suggested that the level of endogenic production of PG in the cerebral vessels may play an important role in the local regulation of the vascular tone, while the disbalance of their dynamic correlation may be responsible for cerebrovascular abnormalities.
