Aortic dilation to acetylcholine (A) or sodium nitroprusside (SNP) (B) was evaluated for female offspring of dams that received injections of either saline or CBX in addition to treatment with either tempol or water. Additional aortic rings were incubated in a combination of PEG-conjugated catalase and SOD prior to the addition of the vasodilators (C and D). Responses were compared by repeated measures ANOVA after the addition of cumulative concentrations of the vasodilator. n = 11 saline (■), n = 7 CBX (□), n = 8 saline–tempol (●), n = 6 CBX–tempol (○). *P < 0.05 CBX compared with the control.
