Prostaglandins suppress VLDL secretion in primary rat hepatocyte cultures: relationships to hepatic calcium metabolism.

In primary cultures of rat hepatocytes, prostaglandin E2 and prostaglandin D2 (PGE2 and PGD2) inhibited the secretion of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-associated apoB, triacylglycerol, and cholesterol. These effects were concentration-dependent and remained apparent for at least 3 days of cult...
