Different effects of prostaglandins E2 and F2 alpha on triglyceride levels in uterine smooth muscle from diabetic diestrous rats.

Triglyceride (TG) concentrations in uterine strips isolated from diestrous normal rats, from diestrous streptozotocin (single iv. injection of 65 mg X Kg body weight-1)-diabetic rats and from diestrous diabetic animals, treated in vivo with insulin (protamine zinc insulin 4U X day-1, 6 days, sc.), were measured.
