Leukocyte adherence to post-capillary mesenteric venules before and during superfusion of the vessels with celecoxib (3 μM) or vehicle in normotensive (top panel) and L-NAME-induced hypertensive (bottom panel) rats. The data are expressed as mean±s.e.mean (n=5–6 per group). ^*P<0.05, ^**P<0.01 vs the corresponding vehicle-treated group. ▿ At the time point indicated by this symbol, blood flow through the vessel stopped in one of the rats in the group treated with celecoxib.
