Endothelin alters the reactivity of vasa vasorum: mechanisms and implications for conduit vessel physiology and pathophysiology

1. The walls of certain large blood vessels are nourished by the vasa vasorum, a network of microvessels that penetrate the adventitia and media of the vessel wall. The purpose of this study was to characterize endothelin-1 (ET-1)-mediated contraction of vasa and to investigate whether threshold con...
