Vascular relaxation induced by C-type natriuretic peptide involves the ca2+/NO-synthase/NO pathway.
<h4>Aims</h4>C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and nitric oxide (NO) are endothelium-derived factors that play important roles in the regulation of vascular tone and arterial blood pressure. We hypothesized that NO produced by the endothelial NO-synthase (NOS-3) contributes to the relaxat...
