nitroglycerin and Hematochezia

nitroglycerin has been researched along with Hematochezia in 39 studies

Nitroglycerin: A volatile vasodilator which relieves ANGINA PECTORIS by stimulating GUANYLATE CYCLASE and lowering cytosolic calcium. It is also sometimes used for TOCOLYSIS and explosives.
nitroglycerol : A nitrate ester that is glycerol in which nitro group(s) replace the hydrogen(s) attached to one or more of the hydroxy groups.
nitroglycerin : A nitroglycerol that is glycerol in which the hydrogen atoms of all three hydroxy groups are replaced by nitro groups. It acts as a prodrug, releasing nitric oxide to open blood vessels and so alleviate heart pain.

Hematochezia: The passage of bright red blood from the rectum. The blood may or may not be mixed with formed stool in the form of blood, blood clots, bloody stool or diarrhea.

"Pretreatment with nitroglycerin, 10(-7), 3 x 10(-7), 10(-6) M for 5 min produced a significant improvement of intestinal tissue morphology and a decrease in the release of both lactate dehydrogenase and malondialdehyde."1.31Protective effects of nitroglycerin-induced preconditioning mediated by calcitonin gene-related peptide in rat small intestine. ( Dun, Y; Hao, YB; Wu, YX; Zhang, Y; Zhao, RR, 2001)
