Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated that the renal prostaglandin system participates in the recovery from ischemic events, in diuresis and in natriuresis. This study was undertaken to probe renal prostaglandin E2 synthesis during the first and second weeks after renal transplantation. Urinary prostaglandin E2 excretion was greatly elevated immediately after transplantation, compared to the second week, and differences in urine PGE2 concentration were also significant. This suggests that enhanced prostaglandin synthesis accompanies the resumption of renal function after transplantation.
