Prostacyclin is released from cultured and ex vivo bovine vascular endothelium following sublethal immunologic injury by a heterologous antibody to endothelial cells developed in rabbits. This release was dependent on calcium and complement and was not enhanced by the presence of platelets. Prostacyclin release was diminished 1-2 hr after the injury, but recovered fully following reculture of the endothelial cells for 72 hr.
