Abstract:
Objective: To investigate alteration and cross link of the aortic intima and platelet endogenous L-Arg/NOS/NO pathway induced by water immersion restraint (WIR) stress. Methods: After 7 h of WIR stress, the aortic intima was isolated and prepared the platelet, then NO_2- production released from aortic intima and platelet was measured with Greiss regent, NOS activity and L-arginine transport activity were detected by isotope tracer method. Results: After 7 h of WIR stress, the levels of NO_2- from platelet and aortic intima obviously decreased by 57% and 46% respectively as comparied with the control rats (P
