title: [Effect of coenzyme A (COA) on the 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha content of the aorta of rats made diabetic with streptozotocin. Potential mechanism of action of its favorable effect on microcirculatory disorders in man].
abstract: The production of 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha, a stable metabolite of the vasodilator prostacyclin (PGI2), by fragments of the thoracic aorta of rats made diabetic by streptozotocin, was evaluated by radio-immunological assay. The level of production was found to be statistically higher (p less than or equal to 0.01) in the group treated with Coenzyme A (CoA) than in the placebo group. The authors suggest that the mode of action of CoA 1000 much greater than in microcirculatory pathology could involve an increased production of vasodilator prostacyclin.
