Previous findings from our laboratory have shown that dilations to endothelium-derived
hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) in rat middle cerebral artery (MCA) are less in females …

The mechanisms underlying endothelium-dependent hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) in the
middle cerebral artery (MCA) remain largely unresolved. In particular, very little is known …

Although the chemical nature of endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) remains
elusive, electrophysiological evidence exists for electrical communication between smooth …

The nature of the vasodilator endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) is
controversial, putatively involving diffusible factors and/or electrotonic spread of …

Gap junctions interconnect vascular cells homocellularly, thereby allowing the spread of
signals along the vessel wall, which serve to coordinate vessel behavior. In addition, gap …

A role for myoendothelial gap junctions (MEGJs) has been proposed in the action of the
vasodilator endothelium‐derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF). EDHF activity varies in …

Endothelium‐derived hyperpolarization (EDH) has been reported in many vessels and an
extensive literature suggests that a novel, non‐nitric oxide and non‐prostanoid, endothelium …

The endothelium controls vascular tone adopting blood flow to tissue needs. It releases
chemical mediators [eg, nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandins (PG)] and exerts appreciable …

A smooth muscle hyperpolarization is essential for endothelium-dependent hyperpolarizing
factor–mediated dilations. It is debated whether the hyperpolarization is induced by a factor …

We tested the hypothesis that endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) plays a
less dominant role in the female cerebrovasculature. The contribution of EDHF to the ATP …
