From: In a rat model of bypass DuraGraft ameliorates endothelial dysfunction of arterial grafts
Effect of DuraGraft on relaxation responses after cold ischemia followed by blood reperfusion. (A) Acetylcholine-induced endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation (control: n = 14 rings from 7 rats; IR: n = 18 rings from 9 rats; IR + Duragraft: n = 17 rings from 9 rats) and (B) sodium nitroprusside-induced endothelium-independent vasorelaxation (control: n = 14 rings from 7 rats; IR: n = 18 rings from 9 rats; IR + Duragraft: n = 17 rings from 9 rats) in aortic rings. The results are presented as mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05 versus control and #p < 0.05 versus IR.
