Abstract
The effect of various prostaglandins (PG)on the generation of cyclic AMP in rat peritoneal macrophages has been studied in vitro. PGE1 produced a rapid intracellular accumulation of cyclic AMP which was followed by its release into the extracellular space. More cyclic AMP was released with prostaglandins of the E-type than with A- and F-types. It is suggested that release of cyclic AMP from macrophages may participate in the modulation of leukocyte function.Entities:
