The role of the vascular KATP channel in septic models
Septic shock is characterized by systemic vasodilatation and an attenuated pressor response to catecholamines. As the hyperactivity (i.e. more channels remain in the open state) of the vascular adenosine triphosphate (ATP)- sensitive type of potassium (KATP) channels results in vasodilatation, this...
