Intrauterine growth restriction weakens anticontractile influence of NO in coronary arteries of adult rats
Abstract Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is one of the most common pathologies of pregnancy. The cardiovascular consequences of IUGR do not disappear in adulthood and can manifest themselves in pathological alterations of vasomotor control. The hypothesis was tested that IUGR weakens anticont...
