Operational correlates of prostanoid TP receptor expression in human non‐pregnant myometrium are unaffected by excision site or menstrual cycle status of the donor

1. Cumulative concentration-effect curves for the selective prostanoid TP receptor agonist, U46619, were constructed in strips of human non-pregnant myometrium grouped according to tissue excision site (top, lateral wall, lower uterine segment, sub-serosal or sub-endometrial), tissue orientation (strips cut either parallel or perpendicular to the serosa) and donor menstrual status (proliferative or secretory phase). 2. U46619 was excitatory in …
