INFLUENCE OF TEMPERATURE ON THE RESPONSES TO CALCIUM OF THE RAT TAIL ARTERY, RABBIT EAR ARTERY AND CAR PAW ARTERY
Smooth muscle tone and sensitivity in several vascular beds are known to change with temperature. While there is considerable evidence for radical changes in vascular smooth muscle responses to temperature changes, the
influence of desensitization and sensitivity to calcium and Bay K 8644 or nifedipine under these conditions are unknown and this study aimed at investigating these in rat tail artery, rabbit ear artery and cat paw artery.
