TABLE 1.

Sialorphin can increase the relaxation of isolated corporal tissue caused by CNP

Variable Rate of tension loss, g/min
Mean (SD):
Carrier (DMSO) 0.052 (0.017)
1 μm CNP 0.087 (0.012)*
1 μg/mL sialorphin 0.072 (0.018)
1 μm CNP + 1 μg/mL sialorphin 0.13 (0.014)*

The mean (SD) rate of tension loss was measured from four corporal smooth muscle strips from four different rats.

*

A significant increase in rate of tension loss (P < 0.05, Student’s t-test) compared with strips treated with carrier alone.
