Attenuation of L-type Ca²⁺ channel expression and vasomotor response in the aorta with age in both Wistar-Kyoto and spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Age-related vascular diseases are induced by vascular dysfunction, which involves changes in the vasomotor response. The voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel (VDCC) protein is involved in the regulation of vessel function (contraction/relaxation action). In the present study, we evaluated age-re...
