YC-1, a Nitric Oxide-Independent Activator of Soluble Guanylate Cyclase, Inhibits the Spontaneous Contractions of Isolated Pregnant Rat Myometrium

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of YC-1 (3-(5′-hydroxymethyl-2′-furyl)-1-benzyl indazole) on spontaneous contractions and levels of cyclic GMP (cGMP) of myometrial strips isolated from pregnant rats. It is a nitric oxide-independent soluble guanylate cyclase activator. Myometrial...
