title: Determination of prostaglandin F2alpha and E2 contents in human cerebrospinal fluid by the radioisotope dilution method.
abstract: Prostaglandin F2alpha and E2 contents in human cerebrospinal fluid were determined by the radioisotope dilution method. The mean values of PGF2alpha and PGE2 of men were 9.8+/-0.87 ng/ml and 6.5+/-1.39 ng/ml, respectively. Those of women were 8.3+/-1.4 ng/ml and 6.9+/-1.72 ng/ml, respectively. The correlation between age and PG was significantly with PGE2 of men and with PGF2alpha of women.
