Changes of Brain Endothelin Levels and Peripheral Endothelin Receptors by Chronic Cigarette Smoke in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
The present study was conducted to evaluate the contribution of endothelin (ET) to the pharmacodynamic response to chronic cigarette smoke in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The contribution of ET was studied consequent to the hemodynamic response following 8 weeks of cigarette smoke by deter...
