nitrates and Muscle Relaxation

nitrates has been researched along with Muscle Relaxation in 71 studies

Nitrates: Inorganic or organic salts and esters of nitric acid. These compounds contain the NO3- radical.

Muscle Relaxation: That phase of a muscle twitch during which a muscle returns to a resting position.

"Experiments were designed to investigate the effects of chronic administration of an NO donor, (+/-)-(E)-ethyl-2-[(E)-ethylhydroxyimino]-5-nitro-3-hexeneamide (FK409), on the impairment of the acetylcholine-induced endothelium-dependent relaxations of the aorta, perfused mesenteric arterial bed and perfused kidney that seen in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats."1.30Effects of chronic treatment with the spontaneous nitric oxide releaser FK409 on vascular responses in established streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat. ( Hayashi, T; Kamata, K, 1999)
" Pyo (10 microM) surmountably inhibited aortic responses to GTN, isosorbide dinitrate, SIN-1, and SNAP with a characteristic rightward shift of the dose-response curve; the apparent EC50 of these drugs for relaxation of phenylephrine-contracted aorta was increased 18-, 4-, 13-, and 15-fold, respectively."1.29Inhibition of nitrovasodilators by pyocyanin and methylene blue is dissociated from nitric oxide formation.
