Figure 2. Effects of NOS and COX inhibition, endothelium denudation, and high K+ on H2O2-induced dilation in non-CAD human adipose arterioles.
A, The dilation was not affected by the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor L-NAME (100 μmol/L), the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin (Indo, 10 μmol/L), alone or in combination. n=6 vessels/group. B, The dilation was not affected by removal of the endothelium, but was abolished by high K+ (60 mmol/L). n=3 vessels/group; *P<0.05 versus control.
