| Abstract | Interactions of hormones stimulating and inhibiting uterine contraction were studied in vitro in uteri from oophorectomized rats. The β-adrenergic effector, isoproterenol, a potent inhibitor of contraction, produced a dose-related increase of adenylate cyclase and accumulation of adenosine 3′:5′-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) that was inhibitable by propranolol. Oxytocin, which stimulates contraction, effectively inhibited accumulation of uterine cAMP induced by isoproterenol in the presence or absence of theophylline. Prostaglandins E2 and F2α, each at a maximum effective concentration of 0.5 μM, also inhibited accumulation of cAMP induced by isoproterenol, consistent with their effect in stimulation of uterine contraction. Prostaglandin E2, but not prostaglandin F2α, stimulated cAMP accumulation in a dose-related manner at concentrations in excess of 0.5 μM. Neither propranolol nor oxytocin inhibited that response. Bovine endometrial adenylate cyclase failed to respond to isoproterenol but was stimulated by prostaglandins E1 and E2. When myometrial preparations were studied, isoproterenol stimulation and prostaglandin effects were observed as for whole castrate uterus. The competitive physiological actions of β-adrenergic effectors on the one hand, and oxytocin and prostaglandins on the other hand, are based on their influences on a myometrial adenylate cyclase. Stimulation of uterine cAMP accumulation by prostaglandin E2 is due to action at a different and unrelated site. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
