Figure 2. Effect of PGE and PGF on membrane potential and tension in term human uterine smooth muscle.

Figure 2

Exposure to PGE and PGF (3 min) evoked an action potential (upper trace) and an increase in tension (lower trace) in a strip of uterine smooth muscle. The action potential was followed by hyperpolarization that increased the interval to the next spontaneous action potential and rise in tension.
