[英文釋義] Cell surface receptors that bind prostaglandins with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells.

They include those which prefer prostaglandin D2 (DP receptors),prostaglandin E2 (EP1,EP2,and EP3 receptors),prostaglandin F2-alpha (FP receptors),and prostacyclin (IP receptors).
