The role of calcium sensitisation in hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstruction

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the role of extracellular and intracellular calcium (Ca2+) in hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV), in rat and rabbit small pulmonary arteries and also in the isolated ventilated perfused rat lung in situ.

1. Rat and rabbit pulmonary artery rings responded biphasically to a 30min hypoxic challenge (PO2, 16-21Torr). An init...
