## Abstract The increase in peripheral resistance of the vascular bed in hypertension has been attributed to adaptive hypertrophy of the media or a soβcalled contracture of the arterial wall due to altered reactivity of smooth muscle cells. We have measured medial crossβsectional area, numbers of s
Increased nitric oxide (NO) release has been implicated in the pathogenesis of the hyperdynamic circulation in portal hypertension. NOS 3 (eNOS) causes NO release from the endothelium in response to physical stimuli, such as increased blood flow and shear stress. We evaluated the functional activity
Portal hypertension (PHT) is characterized by splanchnic hyperemia due to enhanced production of vasodilator substances. Enhanced vasodilation and increased splanchnic blood flow contribute to the elevated portal pressure characteristic of PHT. The aim of this study was to determine whether cyclooxy
Angiotensin II plays a crucial role in the control of blood pressure, acting at AT 1 or AT 2 receptors, and can act as a potent vasoconstrictor of the peripheral vasculature inducing hypertrophy, hyperplasia, or both, in resistance arteries. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether th
