Mechanical stimulation of skeletal muscle increases prostaglandin F2α production, cyclooxygenase activity, and cell growth by a pertussis toxin sensitive mechanism

Repetitive mechanical stimulation of differentiated skeletal muscle in tissue culture increased the long‐term production of prostaglandin F2α, an anabolic stimulator of myofiber growth. Within 4 h of initiating mechanical stimulation, the enzymatic activity of cyclooxygenase (prostaglandin GH syntha...
