Spontaneous contractile activity of isolated ovarian human vein. A dual influence of prostacyclin (PGI2)

The profile of spontaneous contractions as well as the influences of prostacyclin (PGI2) on the motility of human ovarian veins obtained during the estrogenic phase of the sex cycle were explored. The preparations exhibited a distinct phasic activity, which progressively decreased as isolation time...
