Activation of prostaglandin E2 EP1 receptor increases arteriolar tone and blood pressure in mice with type 2 diabetes.
AIMS: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is frequently associated with hypertension, but the underlying mechanisms are not completely understood. We tested the hypothesis that activation of type 1 prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) receptor (EP1) increases skeletal muscle arteriolar tone and blood pressure in mice...
