Abstract
⺠PAR-2 agonists augment spontaneous myometrial contractility (SMC) in pregnant rat. ⺠Bay K 8644 (a Ca2+ channel activator) occluded the effect of PAR-2 agonists on SMC. ⺠PAR-2 agonists enhanced L-type Ca2+ currents in uterine myocyte in pregnant rat. ⺠This PAR-2 effect on L-type Ca2+ currents was mediated by PLC and PKC activation.
