Abstract
⺠Chicken prostaglandin E receptor subtype 3 (cEP3) & F receptor (cFP) were cloned. ⺠An alternative splice variant cFPb was first identified in chicken. ⺠cEP3 and cFP were widely expressed in adult chicken tissues. ⺠Chicken EP3 primarily couples to Gi-cAMP pathway, but may also cause MAPK activation. ⺠Chicken FP primarily couples to Ca2+ pathway, but may also cause MAPK activation.
