* Oxytocin and Prostaglandin F2α both signal by the Gαq -> IP3 + DAG pathway to raise intracellular calcium , so are able to effect each other in the [[Parturition_-_Endocrine_Control_of_Parturition_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Furgesson_Reflex|Fergusson reflex]].
* Oxytocin and Prostaglandin F2α both signal by the Gαq -> IP3 + DAG pathway to raise intracellular calcium , so are able to effect each other in the [[Parturition_-_Endocrine_Control_of_Parturition_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Furgesson_Reflex|Fergusson reflex]].
* COX II increases during labour, so prostaglandins will form as long as arachidonic acid is available.
