Endothelium-derived factors modulate contraction of bronchial smooth muscle

Experiments with canine bronchi designed to determine how changes in the ratio of specific vascular endothelium-derived factors might affect reactivity of bronchial smooth muscle are described. An imbalance in the ratio of production of endothelium-derived factors may contribute to bronchospastic di...

Zusammenfassung:	Experiments with canine bronchi designed to determine how changes in the ratio of specific vascular endothelium-derived factors might affect reactivity of bronchial smooth muscle are described. An imbalance in the ratio of production of endothelium-derived factors may contribute to bronchospastic disorders.
