Abstract

Coronary perfusion pressure at increasing flow of Krebs-Henseleit buffer in the hearts of animals exposed to stress is decreased 23%, a decrease which is eliminated by administering the NO-synthase blocker NG-monomethyl-L-arginine. Stimulated vasodilation of coronary vessels (administration of sodium nitroprusside and acetylcholine) decreases markedly in stressed animals; the concentrations of sodium nitroprusside and acetylcholine inducing a half-maximum coronary response increase.
