title: [Immunohistochemical detection of prostaglandins using immunoperoxidase (PAP) exemplified by a human tumor tissue].
abstract: The possibility of detecting prostaglandins by means of indirect immunoperoxidase-method is reported allowing a differentiation between actual synthesis and inactive metabolites. This technique allows the detection of all important prostaglandins in tissue samples and opens a new route for discovery of prostaglandin synthesis profile of a particular cell type or the electron microscopical localization. Its application in normal and pathological tissue structures will assess the patho-diagnostic value of this new method in the near future.
