Figure 7

Acetylcholine (Ach)-mediated endothelium-dependent relaxation in endothelium-intact mouse aortic rings from wildtype (Gla +/0) or Gla knockout (Gla -/0) mice pre-contracted with an EC80 concentration of PE a) alone without any pharmacological intervention, b) in the presence of 10-4 mol/L Nω-nitro-l-arginine (LNNA), or c) with endothelium denuded. Data are expressed as a percentage of the contraction elicited by PE EC80. * = p<0.05 compared to Gla +/0 by two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferonni post hoc test.
