title: Renal prostaglandins.
abstract: Contradictions persist as to the role of PG in the regulation of renal blood flow and function. Many conflicting data can now be explained by the fact that anesthetized animals often yield different results from conscious, chronically instrumented animals. Further utilization of conscious animals and the continued development of more specific assays and inhibiting agents promises to better characterize the actions of these hormones.
