1 The effects of soman on the resting contractile tension of human uterine arteries, and on contractions of these arteries to vasoactive agents were investigated.

2 Soman did not alter the resting tension of helically-cut strips of human uterine arteries.

3 Soman did not alter concentration-response curves of the strips to noradrenaline, serotonin, potassium chloride or histamine.

4 Soman increased contractile tension of human uterine artery strips to subsequently added 1 µM noradrenaline.

5 It is possible that this enhancement may be involved in decreased regional blood flow following soman administration.
