Endothelium/Nitric Oxide Mediates the Vasorelaxant and Antihypertensive Effects of the Aqueous Extract from the Stem Bark of Mammea africana Sabine (Guttiferae)

Figure 2

Vasorelaxant effects of the aqueous extract of Mammea africana (AEMA) on intact aorta (control), endothelium deprived aorta (endo-), or on intact aorta pretreated with L-NAME (100 μM). Aorta rings were contracted with 1 μM norepinephrine. Data represent the mean ± SEM, 𝑛=6. ^b𝑃<0.01; ^c𝑃<0.001 compared to control.
