Figure 1

(a) Effect of endothelin-1 (ET-1) on aorta and vena cava. Data are presented as means±s.e.mean and as a percentage of an initial phenylephrine (PE) or noradrenaline (NA) response (left) or as a percentage maximal response (right) for an n of 5–6 animals. (b) Effect of ETA receptor antagonist ABT-627 (30 nM; top) and ETB receptor antagonist BQ788 (100 nM; bottom) on ET-1-induced contraction in aorta (left) and vena cava (right) isolated from sham normotensive rats. Data are presented as means±s.e.mean and as a percentage of an initial phenylephrine (PE) or noradrenaline (NA) response (left) for an n of 5–6 animals. * P<0.05, ANOVA repeated measures.
