abstract：:The mechanism of ergonovine-provoked coronary vasospasm is poorly understood. We tested the effect of ergonovine in perfused hearts from normal and cholesterol-fed (18 weeks, 2% cholesterol diet) rabbits in a constant-flow Langendorff perfusion. Aortic perfusion pressure was monitored to measure coronary vascular resi...
