Exenatide induces aortic vasodilation increasing hydrogen sulphide, carbon monoxide and nitric oxide production

Conclusions: Exenatide induces vasodilation in rat thoracic aorta with the contribution of all three gasotransmitters. We provide in vitro evidence for the potential ability of exenatide to lower central (aortic) blood pressure, which could have relevant clinical importance.
