Distinct Roles of Protein Kinase C Isoforms in Myogenic Constriction of Rat Posterior Cerebral Arteries
The involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) in myogenic constriction at physiological intraluminal pressure was investigated in rat posterior cerebral arteries. Changes in constriction and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) were measured in fura 2-loaded arterial segments by pressurized arteri...
