| 1 | The aim of the present study was to investigate whether subpressor concentrations of vasopressin could modify the constrictor responses to norepinephrine and electrical stimulation of the perivascular nerves in human mesenteric arteries. | Norepinephrine | arginine vasopressin | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | Vasopressin (3 x 10(-11) M) enhanced the contractions elicited by electrical stimulation at 2, 4, and 8 Hz (by 100, 100, and 72%, respectively) and produced a leftward shift of the concentration-response curves to norepinephrine (half-maximal effective concentration decreased from 2.2 x 10(-6) to 5.0 x 10(-7) M; P < 0.05) without any alteration in maximal contractions. | Norepinephrine | arginine vasopressin | Homo sapiens |
