Prostaglandins and potassium relaxation in vascular smooth muscle of the rat. The role of Na-K ATPase.

We explored the hypothesis that postaglandin-induced vasodilation is caused by activation of the electrogenic sodium-potassium pump which results in membrane hyperpolarization and relaxation of vascular smooth muscle. Helical strips of rat tail artery relax in response to potassium after norepinephrine-induced contractions in physiological salt solution containing a low-potassium concentration....

4226 The relaxation of retinal pericytes to nitric oxide is modulated by oxygen

&3&@wM : Glihenclamide is an oral hypoglycaemic drug. believed to stimulate the release of insulin by blOCking the ATPdepandent potassium channels of the pancreatic p-cell membrane. ATP-regulated K+-channels are also present in vascular smooth muscle cell. Opening of these channels by dnyls such as cmmakalim or pinactdil. hyperpolarizes the smooth muscle cell and induces relaxation. These relax...
