Research Abstract |
We analyzed the expression of 5 kinds of prostanoid receptors on lymphatic vessel, TP, IP, EP2, EP4, DP1, which are related to the contraction and extension of vasoactivity. All of these receptors were expressed on lymphatic vessel and patterns of expression were compatible to arteries. Our result suggest that prostanoid mayrelate to the activity of lymphatic vessels.
