(A) Maximum cumulative concentration-response curves to phenylephrine (PEP) (10-10 to 10-4 mol/L) in thoracic aorta from CBL (◆) and sham (□) rats with and without preincubation with L-NIL (L-N(6)-(1-iminoethyl)-lysine, a selective iNOS inhibitor). n = 10 in each group with different agonist stimulation. CBL: common bile duct-ligated rats; sham: sham-operated rats. (B) Western blot analysis of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) protein expression from thoracic aorta in CDL and sham-operated rats. Lanes A and B: CBL rats; lanes C and D: sham rats.
