    Cardiovasc Res 80:123-30. 2008
    ..Our aim was to verify the effects of SAD on connexin43 (Cx43) expression and phenylephrine-induced contraction in isolated aortas...

    Vascul Pharmacol 50:98-103. 2009
    ..The relaxing response to Ca2+ was impaired by verapamil and thapsigargin, revealing the importance of L-type Ca2+ channels and sarcoplasmic reticulum in this response...

    Basic Clin Pharmacol Toxicol 102:352-9. 2008
    ..Moreover, drugs that impaired intracellular Ca(2+) release from sarcoplasmic reticulum interrupted the oscillations. The oscillations also depend on the extracellular Ca(2+) entry through L-type Ca(2+)...

    Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Medicine of Ribeirao Preto, University of Sao Paulo, Ribeirao Preto, Brazil
    J Cardiovasc Pharmacol 50:510-8. 2007
    ..Our results indicate that endothelium-derived NO (and not prostanoids), acting through the cGMP pathway, has an inhibitory effect on the oscillations...
