“Arachidonic acid release is an important regulatory component of uterine contraction and parturition, and previous studies showed that lindane stimulates arachidonic acid release from myometrium.”
“ Lindane also increased release of tritiated arachidonic acid to 342, 509, 852, 1236, 1639, and 4454 dpm/micrograms protein with 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, and 100 microM lindane, respectively, compared to solvent controls (342 dpm/micrograms protein).”
