Figure 4.
Scheme of the probable vasorelaxation mechanisms of the extracts of Ginkgo biloba (EGb). An endothelial cell is represented on top and a vascular smooth muscle cell at the bottom (cGMP—cyclic guanosine monophosphate; NO—nitric oxide; NOS—nitric oxide synthase; PNs—prostanoids; ROS—reactive oxygen species; VGCC—voltage-gated calcium channel).
