β2-adrenergic stress evaluation of coronary endothelial-dependent vasodilator function in mice using (11)C-acetate micro-PET imaging of myocardial blood flow and oxidative metabolism

BACKGROUND: Endothelial dysfunction is associated with vascular risk factors such as dyslipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes, leading to coronary atherosclerosis. Sympathetic stress using cold-pressor testing (CPT) has been used to measure coronary endothelial function in humans with positron emiss...
