A comparison of responses to raised extracellular potassium and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) in rat pressurised mesenteric arteries (2014)
Journal Article

The present study examined the hypothesis that potassium ions act as an endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) released in response to ACh in small mesenteric arteries displaying myogenic tone. Small mesenteric arteries isolated from rats...

Raised tone reveals ATP as a sympathetic neurotransmitter in the porcine mesenteric arterial bed (2014)
Journal Article

The relative importance of ATP as a functional sympathetic neurotransmitter in blood vessels has been shown to be increased when the level of preexisting vascular tone or pressure is increased, in studies carried out in rat mesenteric arteries. The a... Read More about Raised tone reveals ATP as a sympathetic neurotransmitter in the porcine mesenteric arterial bed.
