1Gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry demonstrated the presence of arachidonic acid (AA), 6‐keto‐prostaglandin F1αand thromboxane B2(TxB2) in all extracts of homogenized muscle or mucosa from human stomach, terminal ileum or sigmoid colon. Prostaglandin D2(PGD2), PGE2or PGF2αwere usually found more often in the mucosal extracts. The 12‐hydroxy‐derivative of AA (12‐HETE) was detected in all extracts of the colon but in only some of the other tissues2Most prostanoids tested contracted the longitudinal muscle, the order of potency being U‐46619 (an epoxymethano analogue of PGH2)>PGE2>PGF2α>PGD2; PGI2usually caused relaxation, whereas its breakdown products or TxB2had weak and variable effects3U‐46619 or, less potently, PGF2αcontracted the circular muscle, whereas PGI2and usually PGE2caused relaxation. PGD2, 6‐keto‐PGF1α, 6, 15‐diketo‐PGF1αor TxB2usually had little or no effect4PGI2antagonized contractions to some excitatory prostanoids, without greatly affecting contractions to acetylcholine5For both muscle layers there was a gradient in sensitivity to prostanoids along the gastrointestinal tract. The sensitivities were stomach>distal ileum>sigmoid colon6The results are discussed in relation to gastrointestinal physiology and pathophysiology.
