A role of ATP in modulating vasomotion during hypoxia in umbilical cord blood vessels

Previous studies have associated intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) oscillations in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) with vasomotion in multiple species. In normal and pre-eclamptic pregnancies, there is strong evidence to suggest that the intrauterine environment is hypoxic. The aim of this study wa...
