Values are means ± SE; n, no. of rats/group. MAP, mean arterial pressure; HR, heart rate; DAMGO, [d-Ala2,N-MePhe4,Gly-ol5]enkephalin; freely perfused group, control rats whose hindlimb was freely perfused; 72-h occluded group, rats whose femoral artery had been ligated 72 h before the start of the experiment.
