The vascular myogenic response refers to the acute reaction of a blood vessel to a change
in transmural pressure. This response is critically important for the development of resting …

Abstract Na+/K+-pump is an electrogenic transmembrane ATPase located in the outer
plasma membrane of cells. The Na+/K+-ATPase pumps 3 sodium ions out of cells while …

Numbers of biologically active compounds are glycosides. Sometimes, the glycosidic
