Abstract
Prostaglandins (PG) constitute a family of structurally related molecules with diverse functions. They are produced by various animal cells in response to physiological and pathological changes, as e.g. inflammation or cancer. The function of a prostaglandin depends on the target cell and the local presence of other prostaglandins and hormones (1, 2).
