title: Prostaglandins in human duodenal secretions.
abstract: Prostaglandins E1, E2 and F2 alpha were measured in duodenal secretions from two healthy, fasting male subjects. Secretions were collected by duodenal intubation prior to, and following, stimulation by secretin and cholecystokinin. Prostaglandins were measured with a radioimmunoassay technique. The ranges of concentrations found were PGE1: 2.4-110 ng/ml, PGE2: 0.004-1.51 ng/ml, and PGG2 alpha: 0.44-14.6 ng/ml.
