The effects of prostaglandin E2 and PGI2 on accumulation of minopyrine and the generation of cyclicMP by fractions of dispersed canine gastric mucosal cells, enriched in their content of parietal cells, were studied. The parietal cell content of the fractions was enriched to between 43 and 70% using an elutriator rotor. The accumulation of minopyrine was used as the index of parietal cell response to stimulation. PGE2 (0.1 nM-0.1 mM) inhibited histamine stimulated aminopyrine uptake but did not block the response to carbachol, gastrin or dibuturyl cAMP. PGE2 did inhibit aminopyrine uptake stimulated by carbachol and gastrin when the response to these agents was potentiated by histamine.
