Endothelial function in hypertension: the role of superoxide anion

M McIntyre, DF Bohr, AF Dominiczak - Hypertension, 1999 - Am Heart Assoc
Much attention has been focused on the role of nitric oxide in hypertension and cardiovascular
disease. More recently, the role of superoxide anion and its interaction with nitric oxide …

Role of superoxide in the depressed nitric oxide production by the endothelium of genetically hypertensive rats

…, S Mesaros, SW McClain, AF Dominiczak, DF Bohr… - …, 1995 - Am Heart Assoc
We undertook these studies to determine whether a deficient nitric oxide production in
genetically hypertensive rats could result from its being scavenged by an excess production of …

Vascular smooth muscle: dual effect of calcium

DF Bohr - Science, 1963 - science.org
The first part of the contractile response of rabbit aorta to epinephrine is depressed by elevation
of calcium concentration; the second is potentiated. These observations suggest that the …

Glycerinated skeletal and smooth muscle: calcium and magnesium dependence

RS Filo, DF Bohr, JC Ruegg - Science, 1965 - science.org
Contractions of glycerinated skeletal (striated) and vascular (smooth) muscles are similar in
their calcium dependence but differ in their magnesium dependence. The threshold …

Potassium-Induced Relaxation as an Indicator of Na+-K+ ATPase Activity in Vascular Smooth Muscle
