TRPV4 activation in rat carotid artery in DOCA hypertension involves eNOS and endothelium-derived contractile factor (EDCF).

CONCLUSION: TRPV4 may regulate the vascular tone of rat carotid artery through an attenuated NO pathway and stimulation of the release of contractile prostanoids in the DOCA hypertensive rats. PMID: 30325243 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
