Abstract
It is very probable that prostacyclin produces its local effects via specific fixation sites as has been demonstrated at least for the platelets and erythrocytes [167, 240]. In the platelets the fixation site for prostacyclin is identical with that for PGE2, whereas 6-oxo-PGF1α as a breakdown product of prostacyclin does not contract any fixation at this site [289].
