Functional NOS 1 in the rat mesenteric arterial bed.
Previously we have demonstrated functional nitric oxide synthase (NOS) 1 in large arteries. Because resistance arteries largely determine blood pressure, this study examined whether functional NOS 1 also exists in resistance arteries. Phenylephrine (PE) contraction was measured in the absence and presence of the NOS 1 inhibitor N(5)-(1-imino-3-butenyl)-L-ornithine (VNIO) in isolated mesenteric ...
متن کاملMesenteric Arterial Bed
The effects of the purines, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) and guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP), and the pyrimidines, uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP), cytidine 5'-triphosphate (CTP), and thymidine 5'-triphosphate (TTP), on vascular resistance were investigated in the rat mesenteric arterial bed. In preparations at basal tone, these agents produced dose-related vasoconstriction with a potency orde...
متن کاملLysophosphatidylcholine potentiates phenylephrine responses in rat mesenteric arterial bed through modulation of thromboxane A2.
Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) plays important physiological and pathophysiological roles in the cardiovascular system. Despite this, there is little information about its effects on vasore-activity of resistance vessels. The present study was designed to characterize the effects of LPC in the isolated perfused rat mesenteric arterial bed (MAB) and to investigate the underlying mechanisms of the...
متن کاملRole of endothelium in angiotensin II formation by the rat aorta and mesenteric arterial bed.
We investigated the angiotensin II (Ang II)-generating system by analyzing the vasoconstrictor effect of Ang II, angiotensin J (Ang I), and tetradecapeptide (TDP) renin substrate in the absence and presence of inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system in isolated rat aortic rings and mesenteric arterial beds with and without functional endothelium. Ang II, Ang I, and TDP elicited a dose-depend...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
