Ca2+ channel ligand activities in uterine smooth muscle: influence of hormonal status
Abstract
The effects of estrogen and progesterone domination, achieved by administering estrogen (E) and estrogen plus progesterone (E + P), on rat uterine reactivity to Ca2+ and to Ca2+ channel ligands (antagonist and activator) were compared. The inhibitory activities of nifedipine, diltiazem, and D 600 against K+ depolarization-induced responses were not significantly different between E- and E + P-dominated states in longitudinal or circular muscle …
