1 Prostaglandins but not nitric oxide protect renal medullary perfusion in anaesthetised rats receiving angiotensin II. Prostaglandins angiotensinogen Rattus norvegicus
2 Angiotensin II (Ang II) fails to constrict renal medullary vasculature, possibly due to the counteraction of local vasodilators, such as prostaglandins or nitric oxide (NO). Prostaglandins angiotensinogen Rattus norvegicus
3 We conclude that within the inner medulla, but not the outer medulla or cortex, prostaglandins effectively counteract the vasopressor effect of circulating Ang II. Prostaglandins angiotensinogen Rattus norvegicus
