Inhibition of vasomotion in hippocampal cerebral arterioles during increases in neuronal activity.

The activity of small arterioles, internal diameter 9.9 +/- 0.8 microm (SEM), was investigated in the CA1 region of hippocampal slices maintained in vitro at 34 degrees C. Under resting conditions, the vessels were quiescent. However, in the presence of the thromboxane A2 agonist U46619 (75-100 nM),...
