Figure 10

Effect of (BQ-123) or (BQ-788) antagonists on basal or ET-1-induced NADPH oxidase-driven production in endothelium-intact (E+) contralateral carotid rings isolated from operated rats at the sixteenth day after surgery. Significant difference () from the respective rat control carotid rings () or rat contralateral carotid rings (#). One-way ANOVA; Bonferroni post hoc test.
