We examined the expression, distribution, and contribution to vasodilatation of the calcium-activated potassium (KCa) channel family in the commonly used coronary artery bypass graft internal thoracic artery (ITA) and saphenous vein (SV) to understand the role of large conductance KCa (BKCa), intermediate-conductance KCa (IKCa), and small-conductance KCa (SKCa) channel subtypes in graft dilating properties determined by endothelium-smooth muscle interaction that is essential to the postoperative performance of the graft.

Abstract
We examined the expression, distribution, and contribution to vasodilatation of the calcium-activated potassium (KCa) channel family in the commonly used coronary artery bypass graft internal thoracic artery (ITA) and saphenous vein (SV) to understand the role of large conductance KCa (BKCa), intermediate-conductance KCa (IKCa), and small-conductance KCa (SKCa) channel subtypes in graft dilating properties determined by endothelium-smooth muscle interaction that is essential to the postoperative performance of the graft.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
