Expression of P2X receptors in rat pulmonary artery
The P2X receptors expressed in rat large (LPA) and small (SPA) pulmonary artery were characterised using pharmacological and molecular techniques and signalling pathways that mediate their contractile effects were investigated. The role of P2X receptors in sympathetic neurotransmission was also inve...
