Effect of DuraGraft® on vascular contractile and relaxation responses after ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury. Contractile responses (A) to high K+-induced depolarization and (B) phenylephrine (expressed as percentage of the maximum contraction induced by 80 mM potassium chloride (KCl), and (C) acetylcholine-induced endothelium-dependent- and (D) sodium nitroprusside-induced endothelium-independent vasorelaxation of isolated aortic rings. Results are represented as mean ± SEM. * p < 0.05 versus control; # p < 0.05 versus IR. n = 21–36 aortic rings from 7–9 rats/group.
