Hydrogen peroxide elicits constriction of skeletal muscle arterioles by activating the arachidonic acid pathway.

AIMS: The molecular mechanisms of the vasoconstrictor responses evoked by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) have not been clearly elucidated in skeletal muscle arterioles. METHODS AND RESULTS: Changes in diameter of isolated, cannulated and pressurized gracilis muscle arterioles (GAs) of Wistar-Kyoto rats we...
