Data are expressed as the mean percentage of maximal dilation ± standard error of the mean. n, number of vessels. There are no significant changes in the resting diameters. Based on two-way ANOVA, the responses to sodium nitroprusside (SNP) are unaffected by any perturbations compared with the control. L-NAME, NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester; TEA, tetraethylammonium.
