Biochem/physiol Actions
Luteolytic prostaglandin that induces parturition. Potent vasoconstrictor of pulmonary, coronary, and cerebral arteriole beds. A positive feedback loop between endometrial PG F2α and luteal oxytocin is responsible for completion of luteolysis.
Luteolytic prostaglandin that induces parturition. Potent vasoconstrictor of pulmonary, coronary, and cerebral arteriole beds. Also stimulates contraction of smooth muscle, such as in bronchi, with possible involvement in asthma. This effect is at least partially mediated through tachykinin release.
Prostaglandin F2α is induced by uterine-produced oxytocin and acts on the corpus luteum to cause luteolysis and inhibit progesterone production.
