Increased vascular heme oxygenase‐1 expression contributes to arterial vasodilation in experimental cirrhosis in rats

Vascular heme oxygenase (HO) regulates vascular tone in normal conditions and in some pathologic circumstances (e.g., sepsis). However, its possible role in the pathogenesis of arterial vasodilation in cirrhosis is unknown. To address this question, the expression and activity of HO in arterial vess...
