From: β2-adrenergic stress evaluation of coronary endothelial-dependent vasodilator function in mice using 11C-acetate micro-PET imaging of myocardial blood flow and oxidative metabolism

Figure 4

Hemodynamics and myocardial blood flow index (MBFi) response to adrenergic stress agents norepinephrine (NE) and salbutamol (SB) with and without NOS inhibition. Normal controls are compared to NOS inhibition (L-NAME pretreatment), and endothelial nitric oxide synthase knockout mice (eNOS knockout). NE-stress (green), SB-stress (high dose, dark blue; low dose, light blue). *p < 0.05 vs. NE Control.
