Summary
Tartaric acid-evoked contractions of the rat isolated fundus could not be antagonized by atropine sulphate or methysergide hydrogen maleate, but were partially reduced by mepyramine hydrochloride. The contractions were prevented by indomethacin (25 micrograms ml-1) although the tissue remained sensitive to PGE2.
