Hypoxic relaxation of penile arteries: involvement of endothelial nitric oxide and modulation by reactive oxygen species.

Although obesity-related cardiovascular disease and hypoxia are associated with erectile dysfunction, little is known about the direct effects of hypoxia on penile arteries. In the present study, the effects of acute hypoxia (Po(2) = approximately 10 Torr, 20 min) were investigated in isolated penil...
