Endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent relaxations are unaffected in norepinephrine-pre-contracted breast cancer feed arteries compared to matched control arteries. Relaxation of norepinephrine-pre-contracted arteries in response to acetylcholine (a) (n = 22) and nitric oxide (NO)-donor S-nitroso-N-acetyl-DL-penicillamine) (SNAP) (b) (n = 7). a Data were compared by repeated measures two-way analysis of variance followed by Bonferroni’s post-hoc test. b Curves are results of least-squares fits to sigmoidal functions and were compared using the extra-sum-of-squares F test. NS: not significantly different vs. control
