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 |
