The direction of vasomotor effects of thrombin is regulated by vascular tone
Experiments on circular preparations of rat aortic arch show that after an increase in vascular tone thrombin-induced vasoconstriction is replaced by vasodilation. This effect is observed when vascular tone is modified with norepinephrine or prostaglandinF2α. Mechanical de-endothelialization abolish...

Zusammenfassung: | Experiments on circular preparations of rat aortic arch show that after an increase in vascular tone thrombin-induced vasoconstriction is replaced by vasodilation. This effect is observed when vascular tone is modified with norepinephrine or prostaglandinF2α. Mechanical de-endothelialization abolishes dilation and has no effect on constriction. Dilation is blocked by incubation with nitroarginine. |
