NaHS induces relaxation response in prostaglandin F2α precontracted bovine retinal arteries partially via Kv and Kir channels
Hydrogen sulphide (H 2 S) is known to be produced endogenously in ocular tissues with the
highest levels in the retina and cornea. However, it is yet unclear whether it can modulate …
