Role of the gap junctions in the contractile response to agonists in pulmonary artery from two rat models of pulmonary hypertension
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is characterized by arterial vascular remodelling and alteration in vascular reactivity. Since gap junctions are formed with proteins named connexins (Cx) and contribute to vasoreactivity, we investigated both expression and role of Cx in the pulmonary arteria...
