Vascular Relaxation Induced by C-Type Natriuretic Peptide Involves the Ca(2+)/NO-Synthase/NO Pathway

AIMS: C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and nitric oxide (NO) are endothelium-derived factors that play important roles in the regulation of vascular tone and arterial blood pressure. We hypothesized that NO produced by the endothelial NO-synthase (NOS-3) contributes to the relaxation induced by CNP...
