OBJECTIVES: To investigate the protective effect of betulinic acid (BA) on endothelium-dependent relaxation (EDR) in rat aortas exposed to pyrogallol-produced superoxide anion and its underlying mechanism. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The thoracic aorta of male Sprague-Dawley rats was isolated to mount in...
