Prostaglandins and the kidney.

TL;DR: There is evidence that renal prostaglandins are involved either primarily or secondarily in many types of hypertension, and inhibitors of prostaglandsin cyclooxygenase have been used with success in Bartter's syndrome.

The Role of Prostaglandins in the Central Nervous System

TL;DR: This review on the eNS covers advances in the past three years and concerns specifically the possible involvement of the prostaglandin system in the regulation of physiological and pathophysiolog­ ical processes.

Immunohistochemical localization of prostaglandin EP3 receptor in the rat nervous system.

TL;DR: The characteristic distribution of EP3R provides valuable information on the mechanisms for various physiologic actions of prostaglandin E2 in the central and peripheral nervous systems and suggests thatEP3R plays regulatory roles in the noradrenergic and serotonergic monoamine systems.

Distribution of the messenger rna for the prostaglandin e receptor subtype ep3 in the mouse nervous system

TL;DR: It is suggested that EP3 not only mediates prostaglandin E2 signals evoked by blood-borne cytokines in the areas poor in the blood-brain barrier, but also responds to those formed intrinsically within the brain to modulate various neuronal activities.

Prostaglandins: Effects on blood pressure, renal blood flow, sodium and water excretion

TL;DR: The evidence for and against the proposed actions of prostaglandins in regulating blood pressure, renal blood flow and renal sodium and water excretion are surveyed.

Hypotheses on physiological roles of prostaglandins.

E W Horton
TL;DR: Prostaglandin, a smooth muscle-stimulating depressor acidic lipid discovered int he human seminal plasma in 1935, is now used as a generic term for a family of closely related derivatives of prostanoic acid which are widely distributed in animal tissues.
