Phenylephrine concentration-response curves in endothelium-intact carotid arteries from
control and DOC-salt hypertensive rats in the presence or absence of 100 μmol/L LNA. Data are
plotted as percentage of maximal contractile response to phenylephrine.

Phenylephrine concentration-response curves in endothelium-intact mesenteric resistance
arteries from control (n=9) and DOC-salt hypertensive (n=10) rats in the presence or absence of
100 μmol/L LNA. Data are plotted as percentage of maximal contractile response to

Acetylcholine concentration-response curves in carotid arteries from control and DOC-salt
hypertensive rats (n=6 to 8 in each group) in the presence or absence of 100 μmol/L LNA.
Arteries were precontracted with an EC80 concentration of phenylephrine. *Significant
difference between control and DOC.

Acetylcholine concentration-response curves in mesenteric resistance arteries from control and
DOC-salt hypertensive rats in the presence (n=6 to 9) or absence (n=8 to 13) of 100 μmol/L LNA.
Arteries were preconstricted with an EC80 concentration of phenylephrine. *Significant
difference between DOC and DOC+LNA groups.
