Cerebral large arteries dilate actively around the lower limits of CBF autoregulation,
mediated at least partly by nitric oxide, and maintain CBF during severe hypotension. We …

Objective Our goals were to determine the influence of sex on reactivity of cerebral arterioles
and whether MExT could influence sex‐related differences in reactivity of cerebral arterioles …

Many physicians, including myself, have tended to view the most peripheral part of the
cardiovascular system, the microcirculation, as a foreign land in which mysterious events …

We studied the effect of endothelium on the flow-induced response of conductance arteries
and the resistance arteriolar network in an in situ model of perfused mesenteric artery in …

Diabetes mellitus is characterized by hyperglycemia, a decrease in circulating insulin and
the development of macro-and microvascular pathology. Hyperglycemia appears to be a …

1 We have used an isolated buffer‐perfused preparation of the rabbit ear to investigate the
effects of hypoxia and inhibition of endothelium‐derived relaxing factor (EDRF) synthesis on …

BACKGROUND The renin-angiotensin system and endothelium-derived nitric oxide (EDNO)
are important regulators of vascular tone. This study was designed to investigate endothelial …

The goal of this study was to determine whether responses of the basilar artery to products
released by platelets are altered during chronic hypertension. The diameter of the basilar …

This study assesses and elucidates the mechanisms of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO2)
effects on vascular reactivity to angiotensin-(1-7)(ANG-(1-7)) and angiotensin II (ANG II). Rat …

The effects of dietary Spirulina on vasomotor responses of aorta rings from male Wistar rats
fed a purified fructose-rich diet were analyzed. For this purpose, the animals were allocated …
