Effects of long-term diabetes on norepinephrine-induced vasoconstriction of the femoral principal nutrient artery (PNA) with the endothelium intact (A) and with the endothelium removed (B). Values are means ± SE, n = 10–14/group. *Mean PNA response from 20 wk obese ZDF rats is different from that of 20 wk lean ZDF rats (P<0.05).
