Catalase Influence in the Regulation of Coronary Resistance by Estrogen: Joint Action of Nitric Oxide and Hydrogen Peroxide
We tested the influence of estrogen on coronary resistance regulation by modulating nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels in female rats. For this, estrogen levels were manipulated and the hearts were immediately excised and perfused at a constant flow using a Langendorff’s apparatus...
