Role of prostaglandin I2 in the bronchoconstriction-triggered cough response in guinea pigs.

CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that PGI2 ameliorates a bronchoconstriction-triggered cough. The measurement and administration of PGI2 may assist in the diagnosis and treatment, respectively, of the cough response triggered by bronchoconstriction.
