Effect of endothelin-1 on spontaneous contractions and effects of nimodipine and isradipine on endothelin-1-induced contractions in myometrial strips isolated from normal pregnant and preeclamptic women
(MUNKSGAARD INT PUBL LTD, 1998)
Background. To examine the effect of endothelin-l (ET-1) on spontaneous contractile activity and the effects of nimodipine and isradipine on ET-l-induced contractile responses in myometrial strips isolated from normal ...
Effects of nimodipine and isradipine on endothelin-1-induced contraction of pregnant rat myometrium
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 1998)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of nimodipine and isradipine on endothelin-1-induced contractions of isolated pregnant rat myometrium. Endothelin-1 at 10(-10)-10(-8) M dose-dependently increased the ...
Effect of deferoxamine and sympathectomy on vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage
(KARGER, 1996)
We examined the effects of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and treatment with deferoxamine (DFO) or sympathectomy on vascular smooth muscle function, as well as the underlying mechanisms involved, by recording the responses ...
Effects of sympathectomy on endothelin-1 and histamine responses of rabbit carotid artery
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 1997)
1. The effects of chronic sympathectomy on contractile responses of rabbit common carotid artery was studied in vitro. 2. Endothelin-1 (ET-I), histamine, KCl and papaverine concentration-response curves of sympathectomized ...
Effect of additional testosterone on purinergic responses in isolated rabbit corpus cavernosum strips
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD, 1998)
Recently, it has been demonstrated that the endothelium of corpus cavernosum (CC) plays an important role on smooth muscle relaxation, which is crucial to initiate and maintain erection. We investigated the effect of ...
Effects of endothelin-1 and calcium channel blockers on contractions in human myometrium - A study on myometrial strips from normal and diabetic pregnant women
(SCI PRINTERS & PUBL INC, 1999)
OBJECTIVE: We studied the effect of endothelin (ET)-1 on spontaneous contractions and the effects of nimodipine and isradipine on ET-l-induced contractions in myometrial tissue from normal and diabetic pregnant women. STUDY ...
Changes in the nitric oxide system of rat myometrium during midgestation and delivery at term
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD, 1998)
The aims of this study were to investigate whether a nitric oxide (NO) system is present in the pregnant rat myometrium and whether it differentially inhibits myometrial contractility during midgestation and delivery at ...
Inhibitory effects of isradipine on spontaneous and oxytocin- and carbachol-stimulated contractions of rat myometrium
(KARGER, 1998)
Our aim was to investigate the effect of isradipine, a second-generation calcium channel blocker, on spontaneous and oxytocin- and carbachol-stimulated contractions of myometrium isolated from nonpregnant and pregnant rats. ...
