Activation of novel signal transduction pathways by human EP1 prostanoid receptors: the G-protein coupled receptors for prostaglandin E2

The EP1 prostanoid receptor is one of four subtypes whose cognate physiological ligand is PGE₂. It is in the family of G-protein coupled receptors and is known to activate Ca²⁺ signaling, although it is unclear if this is mediated by coupling to G(q/11). Likewise little is known about other aspects...
