Putative mechanism of hypotensive action of platelet-activating factor in dogs.

abstract：:We determined the extent of convergence of preganglionic fibers from the right and left vagus nerves on postganglionic neurons that supply the sinoatrial node in chloralose-anesthetized dogs. We administered hemicholinium-3 and stimulated the right vagus nerve at a high frequency to deplete acetylcholine from the post...

abstract：:Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) include most major constituents of the arterial wall as substrates. A common promotor polymorphism (5A/6A) is associated with differences in MMP-3 (stromelysin-1) activity, and associations with certain forms of vascular disease have been shown. This study investigated whether the MMP-...
