Serotonin-induced contraction in mesenteric arterial rings of control and protein-restricted offspring. Endothelium-denuded mesenteric arterial rings were incubated in Krebs buffer and then stimulated with increasing concentrations of serotonin. Serotonin contraction was measured and presented as percentage of maximal contraction in the males (A) and female (B) offspring. Serotonin-induced contractions were also calculated as percentage of 80mM KCl contraction in male (C) and females (D). n=10 to 12 mesenteric arterial rings from 5 to 6 rats of each group.
