GLP-1 Relaxes Rat Coronary Arteries by Enhancing ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channel Currents

<div>Proposed mechanism of the vasorelaxation effect of GLP-1 on the rat coronary artery. GLP-1 increases the K<sub>ATP</sub> current in RCASMCs, which may be one of the causes of the vasodilation effect of GLP-1 on the rat coronary artery, and its vasodilation effect is endothelium-dependent.</div>
