Summary Prostaglandins (PGE1) and dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dBc AMP) induce similar morphological changes in astrocytes obtained in primary cultures. PGE1 and dBc AMP increased 2 enzymes of GABA and glutamate metabolism, GABA-T and AAT, but did not modify GDH and GLN-S. Prostaglandins probably affect the cAMP content of glial cells and act in the same way as dBc AMP on glial cell differentiation.
