Endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent contractions in the thoracic aorta of rats: (a) concentration response curves to calcium ionophore A23187 (10−9 -10−5 M); (b) concentration response curves to PE (10−9 -10−4 M). Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 12). Relaxations were expressed as a percentage of the contraction induced by PE (10−6 M). #P < 0.05 vs. C. ∗P < 0.05 and ∗∗P < 0.01 vs. DM.
