Role of nitric oxide in reactive hyperemia in human forearm vessels

The role of nitric oxide (NO) in reactive hyperemia (RH) is not well known. We investigated whether NO plays a role in RH in human forearm vessels by examining the effects of NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA), a blocker of NO synthesis, on reactive hyperemic flow. Forearm blood flow (FBF) was measur...
