abstract = {AIM: To investigate the mechanism of the enhanced endothelium-dependent vasodilatation in thoracic aorta of the early stage streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic C57BL/6J mice. METHODS: Radioimmunity was used to detect the metabolite of prostaglandin I2 (PGI2), 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha (6-keto-PGF1 alpha), in the blood serum. Vascular muscle tension and phenylephrine (PE)-induced rhythmic activity in the isolated thoracic aorta of mice were also compared. RESULTS: 6-Keto-PGF1 alpha in the serum was significantly higher in STZ-induced diabetic mice than age-matched controls [(1.8+/-1.0) microg./L vs (0.5+/-0.3) microg/L, P},
