Opposite effect of mast cell stabilizers ketotifen and tranilast on the vasoconstrictor response to electrical field stimulation in rat mesenteric artery.
OBJECTIVES: We analyzed whether mast cell stabilization by either ketotifen or tranilast could alter either sympathetic or nitrergic innervation function in rat mesenteric arteries. METHODS: Electrical field stimulation (EFS)-induced contraction was analyzed in mesenteric segments from 6-month-old W...
