A new UV labeling reagent was developed and used in HPLC for the determination of prostaglandin $E_2$ which have weak UV light-absorbing property. This reagent, 2-bromoacetyltriphenylene, was synthesized by the bromination of 2-acetyltriphenylene which was obtained from triphenylene by Friedel-Crafts reaction. The wave length maximum (${\lambda}_{max}^{CH_3CN}$ of this reagent was 268nm. Prostaglandin E$_2$ was extracted from prostaglandin E$_2$-$\beta$-cyclodextrin using a Sep-pak $C_{18}$ cartridge. The prostaglandin E$_2$ was labeled with 2-bromoacetyl-triphenylene in aectonitrite using 18-crown-6-ether as catalyst. Derivatized prostaglandins were separated on a reversed-phase column (Radial-pak) $\mu$-Bondapak $C_{18}$ using acetonitrile: water=60:40 as mobile phase. The effluent was monitored by UV detector at 254nm filter kit. Linearity of calibration curve was obtained between 30ng and 140ng, and the lower limit of detection was 5ng.

This paper was carried out to observe prostaglandin $F_{2{\alpha}}$-induced morphological changes in the placenta. White mice received intramuscular injections of $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$(containing dinoprost tromethamine 0.5mg/ml, Upjohn Co.) in once or twice with doses of 0.1ml on 10th to 18th day of their respective pregnancies, the histological changes of the placentae and ovaries were observed with light microscope. Abortion within 21 to 51 hours following $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ administration occurred in the pregnant mice. Vacuolization of trophospongial cells, giant cells and myometrium under decidua basalis, spherical acidophilic inclusion bodies of various sixtes in trophospongial cells and giant cells. hydropic degeneration and necrosis of labyrinthine trophoblasts and yolk cells, and infltration of neutrophils in the placenta and the uterus were observed. In addition, there were decrease in glycogen of the placental labyrinth and the visceral yolk sac, but increase in glycogen deposit of mesometrial myometrium. Atrophy and increase in number of large lipid droplets of the luteal cells and proliferation of fibroblasts were also recognized in the corpora lutea.

The antiulcer effects of newly synthesized prostaglandin derivatives were investigated in various experimental ulcer models and on gastric secretion in rats. HK-3 and HK-4, PG $E_2$derivatives, prevented the formation of acute gastric ulcer induced by ethanol or aspirin in pylorus-ligated rats. The ulcer formation was moderately inhibited by HK-1 and HK-2, PG $F_{2{\alpha}}$ derivatives, and aggravated by SK-1, SK-2 and SK-3, PG $F_{2{\alpha}}$ derivatives. HK-3 and HK-4 reduced the volume, acid output and pepsin output of gastric juice in pylorus-ligated rats. The gastric perfusion with physiologic saline(pH 6.0) showed relatively constant acid secretion and indomethacin increased the acid secretion. The acid secretion was markedly decreased by PG $E_2$but PG $F_{2{\alpha}}$ caused little change. Prostaglandin derivatives, especially HK-3 arid HK-4, significantly inhibited the acid secretion induced by indomethacin. The results show that, PG $E_2$ derivatives, HK-3 and HK-4, inhibit acid secretion and also have protective effects on gastric ulceration induced by ethanol or aspirin.

The effects of prostaglandin $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ on the contractility of vascular smooth muscle were investigated in the helical strip of the rabbit aorta. The aortic strip was immersed in the phosphate-buffered Tyrode's solution which was equilibrated with 100% $O_{2}$ at $35^{\circ}C$ and its isometric tension was measured. The contraction was induced by $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$, norepinephrine (NE), or potassium (40 mM) in the nomal Tyrode's solution (1 mM, $Ca^{2+}$) or $Ca^{2+}-free$ Tyrode's solution. Effects of verapamil and phentolamine on the contraction were also observed. The aortic strip began to contract at the concentration of $5\;{\mu}g%$ and reached the maximal contraction at the concentration of $150\;{\mu}g%$ $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$. The maximal contraction was corresponded respectively to $52.2{\pm}3.0%$ and $81.5{\pm}3.5%$ of maximal contraction by NE $(1{\times}10^{-5}M)$ and 40 mM $K^{+}$. And the maximal contractions by $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ or NE were induced at the concentration of about 1 mM $Ca^{2+}$. $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ induced the contraction of aortic strip even after induction of contraction by 40 mM $K^{+}$ and the contraction by $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ was not blocked by the ${\alpha}-receptor$ blocker, phentolamine. And the contraction by the $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ was inhibited partially by a verapamil at the concentration of $1{\times}10^{-5}M$ and the contraction began to increase at the concentration of $1{\times}10^{-4}M$ verapamil. Whereas the contraction by NE was completely blocked by verapamil. Though both the $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ and NE induced the contraction in the $Ca^{2+}-free$ Tyrode's solution, the peak tension was not maintained. But the rate of tension decline was lower in the contraction by $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ than in that by NE. The verapamil did not inhibit the contraction by $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ in the $Ca^{2+}-free$ Tyrode's solution and increased the contraction at the concentration of above $1{\times}10^{-4}M$. The NE-induced contraction in the $Ca^{2+}-free$ Tyrode's solution was inhibited completely by a verapamil. From the above results it is suggested that the contraction induced by $(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ results from the promotion of the both $Ca^{2+}$ influx and the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ release by different way from NE.

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of kinematic taping therapy on menstrual distress, pain, and $prostaglandinF2{\alpha}$. The experimental subject was a 24 years old woman with the pain of over 5 points on the dysmenorrhea measurement test and no unusual reactions on the taping test. The menstrual distress was measured by the Menstrual Distress Questionnaire (MDQ), and the dysmenorrhea was measured by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before and after the intervention. The prostaglandin $F2{\alpha}(PGF2{\alpha})$ was measured on the first day of menstruation before the intervention and 24 hours after the taping therapy by the blood test. The intervention of kinematic taping was conducted by the instructor of the International Kinematic Taping Academy, and the taping was applied to the lower abdomen and the waist. According to the difference of menstrual distress before and after the intervention, the menstrual distress turned out to be decreased to 96 points after the intervention from the 115 points before the intervention. The dysmenorrhea also reduced 3 points on the VAS from 7 points to 4 points before and after the intervention. The $PGF2{\alpha}$ decreased from $26pg/m{\ell}$ to $20pg/m{\ell}$ before and after the intervention. Besides, the $PGF2{\alpha}$ decreased from $26pg/m{\ell}$ to $20pg/m{\ell}$ before and after the intervention. Results suggest that kinematic taping therapy could be useful to reduce the menstrual distress, pain, and $PGF2{\alpha}$.

The corpus luteum is a transient endocrine gland essential for regulation of the ovarian cycle as well as for establishing and maintaining pregnancy. Prostaglandin $F_{2{\alpha}}$ (PGF) initiates functional and structural regression of the corpus luteum and therefore is an important regulator of the estrous cycle. It is a matter of debate whether the endothelial cells of the bovine corpus luteum express PGFR, the cognate receptor for PGF. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the expression of PGFR in bovine endothelial cells. Endothelial cells were isolated from the bovine corpus luteum of the mid-luteal stage using magnetic beads and cultured in vitro. We demonstrate that this isolation procedure generates a pure culture of endothelial cells as confirmed by synthesis of Factor VIII and lack of expression of $3{\beta}$-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. By RT-PCR, Western blot and immunofluorescence analyses, we further show that the cultured endothelial cells produced PGFR. This model system can be utilized to provide an experimental system to investigate the role of PGF on endothelial cells during the reproductive cycle.

This experiment was conducted to find out the time to farrowing induction after PGF2$\alpha$ treatment, the rate of farrowing induction, the effect of kids born by the induced farrowing on birth weight and development with study on artificial control of parturition in Korean native goats. A total of 24 pluriparous goats were offered for this experiment. The animals were divided into 4 goats per treatment by administration time(142, 145 or 148 day of pregnancy) and dosage (5 or 7.5mg). The results obtained in this experiments were as follows : 1. The effect of synchronization of estrus was induced 23 goats(95.1%), 16 goats(66.6%) in the 1st treatment and 7 goats(28.5%) in the 2nd treatment PGF2$\alpha$ and exhibited estrus at a mean interval of 75$\pm$5 hours after PGF2$\alpha$ injection. 2. The time to farrowing induction after PGF2$\alpha$ treatment on day 145 or 148 was significantly(P<0.01) shorter than that of the 5mg treatment, but there was no significant difference(P>0.01). 3. Parturition was induced in all goats(100%) treated 5 or 7.5mg of PGF2$\alpha$ on day 148 and 7.5mg of PGF2$\alpha$ on day 145, but was induced 75% in treatment with 5mg of PGF2$\alpha$ on day 145 and 5 or 7.5mg of F2$\alpha$ on day 142. 4. The birth weight and development of kids induced farrowing was heaviest (P<0.01) on days 148 among treatment, but there was no significant difference in dosage.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of administration of Prostaglandin $F_2{\alpha}$ ($PGF_2{\alpha}$) on semen collection training and semen characteristics in sexually inexperienced boars. Boars were moved individually to a semen collection pen and were trained to mount dummy sow. During the first and second semen collection secessions, 4 out of 17 boars and 4 out of remaining 13 boars allowed collection of semen. The 9 boars that failed semen collection from first 2 attempts received immediately 15 mg of $PGF_2{\alpha}$ i.m. (intramuscular injection) upon entering the collection pen for semen collection resulted in successful semen collection from all 9 boars. Total numbers of spermatozoa were higher in $PGF_2{\alpha}$ treated boars but there was no significant difference in % motility kinematics characteristics between control and $PGF_2{\alpha}$ treated groups during 72 hr period. Overall, administration of $PGF_2{\alpha}$ in sexually inexperienced boars increased the sex drive and facilitated the mounting activity to the dummy sow for semen collection.

Estrus was induced and the therapeutic effect was examined with 25mg of PGF2$\alpha$ intramuscular injection and 3mg of PGF2$\alpha$ intraovarian injection to Holstein and Simmental cows which were raised in the large size stockfarms and the dairy farms, and were diagnosed to anestrus. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The estrus inducing effect observed in the cows treated by PGF2$\alpha$ was 83.3% with 25/30 heads in the intramuscular injection group, and 86.7% with 26/30 heads in the intraovarian injection group. 2. Average duration from PGF2$\alpha$ administration to the onest of estrus was 2.7 day in the intramuscular injection group, and 2.6 days in the intraovarian injection group. 3. In status of estrus in the cows treated by PGF2$\alpha$, vigorous estrus was 12.0%, normal estrus 60.0% and silent estrus was 28.0% in the intramuscular injection group, and vigorous estrus was 15.4%, normal estrus 61.5%, and silent estrus 23.1% in the intraovarian injection group. 4. Conception rate in the cows induced to estrus was 64.0% in the intramuscular injection group and 65.4% in the intraovarian injection group.
