An endothelium‐derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) that is distinct from nitric oxide (NO) and prostanoids has been widely hypothesized to hyperpolarize and relax vascular smooth …

Small arteries, which play important roles in controlling blood flow, blood pressure, and capillary pressure, are under nervous influence. Their innervation is predominantly …

Many arteries and arterioles exhibit rhythmical contractions which are synchronous over considerable distances. This vasomotion is likely to assist in tissue perfusion especially …
It has become increasingly clear that the accumulation of proteins in specific regions of the plasma membrane can facilitate cellular communication. These regions, termed signaling …

In resistance arteries, spread of hyperpolarization from the endothelium to the adjacent smooth muscle is suggested to be a crucial component of dilation resulting from …
Vascular smooth muscle contraction is suppressed by feedback dilation mediated by the endothelium. In skeletal muscle arterioles, this feedback can be activated by Ca2+ signals …

Cell-cell communication in the arteriolar wall was examined using the Ca2+-sensitive indicator fura-2 and the Ca2+ buffer BAPTA as means of measuring and buffering cellular …
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the local control of microvascular perfusion, which has been described as “the maintenance of appropriate tissue blood flow despite …

Endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) was envisaged as a chemical entity causing vasodilation by hyperpolarizing vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cells and distinct …
