Abstract

It seems that prostacyclin has an increasing effect on gastric mucosal (antral and fundic) calmodulin level in rats. Using either the calcium channel blocker verapamil or anti-calmodulin drugs (diazepam, trifluoperazine,) the cytoprotective effect of prostacyclin can be inhibited. Therefore, it is probable that calcium ions and calcium-activated calmodulin play a role in the effect of prostacyclin.
