Seminal prostaglandins in infertile men.

TL;DR: The concentration of prostaglandin E (PGE) was measured in the semen of 5 men of proven fertility and in 12 men of couples who were infertile but in whom no abnormality had been detected by conventional semen analysis, postcoital test of sperm motility, endometrial biopsy, and laparoscopic dye insufflation of the fallopian tubes.

Studies on 5-hydroxytryptamine stores in pineal gland of rat.

TL;DR: There is strong evidence to support the view that the sympathetic nerves of the rat's pineal are noradrenergic, but take up 5-HT from the parenchymal cells into their terminal portions, which run within the gland.

Prostaglandins in Human Seminal Plasma PROSTAGLANDINS AND RELATED FACTORS 46

TL;DR: This study on human seminal plasma sought after the compounds which either possess the dienone chromophore or can be converted into it by treatment with sodium hydroxide and led to the isolation of 8 more prostaglandins which were present in higher concentrations than the previously recognized PGs.
