## Abstract Stimulation of primary cultures of rat astrocytes with appropriate agents results in the mobilization of arachidonic acid from intracellular lipid pools and the synthesis of eicosanoids. Thromboxane A~2~ is one of the major prostanoids released upon stimulation with calcium ionophore, p
