Figure 1

Concentration-response curve for acetylcholine (ACh) (A, n = 10–18), representing endothelium-dependent relaxation (EDR) or sodium nitroprusside (SNP), representing endothelium-independent relaxation (EIDR) (B, n = 3–4) in aortas isolated from Wistar (WT) and Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats. EDR (C, n = 8–10) as well as EIR (D, n = 3) were also evaluated in mesenteric arteries from WT and GK rats. Data are presented as mean ± SEM as percentage relaxation of PE. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, calculated with two-way ANOVA.
