Abstract
New information on prostaglandins and related structures derived from arachidonic acid is accumulating rapidly. Of particular interest is evidence for the existence of labile, highly biologically active, nonprostanoate derivatives. A role for the classic prostaglandins in immunologic inflammation is already strongly suspected, and it seems likely that the newly recognized arachidonic acid metabolites may prove to be even more important.
