 | | Relaxation in response to the bradykinin stimulus was abolished in the presence of L-nitroarginine methyl ester, a specific inhibitor of the synthesis of endothelium-derived relaxing factor ( EDRF). |  | | It is concluded that endothelin-1 contractions of rat aorta are modified by the endothelium, probably by enhancing the release of endothelium-derived relaxing factor ( EDRF) and not by affecting the sensitivity of the smooth muscle to EDRF. |  | | We conclude that bradykinin relaxes human CC by releasing EDRF and that this EDRF may be a factor in erectile function. |

 | | After the discovery that relaxation by EDRF is associated with a rise in cGMP in the vascular smooth muscle, we found that photorelaxation of arterial smooth muscle (using near UV radiation) is also associated with a rise in cGMP, which precedes the relaxation. |  | | Furchgott, R. Studies on relaxation of rabbit aorta by sodium nitrite: the basis for the proposal that the acid-activatable inhibitory factor from retractor penis is inorganic nitrite and the endothelium-derived relaxing factor is nitric oxide. |  | | This factor was called the endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF). |

 | | Endothelium derived relaxing factor (EDRF), now widely belived to be nitric oxide (NO), may play an important part in the control of fetoplacental vascular tone. |  | | To further explore this role we have determined the relaxation responses to exogenous NO and examined the temporal relationship between intracellular concentrations of cyclic GMP and vascular tone in isolated ring segments of human chorionic plate arteries. |  | | Lastly, we have explored the relaxation responses to a wide range of agents known to elicit EDRF release in other vascular beds. |

 | | BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The predominant view is that the endothelium- derived relaxing factor generated by acetylcholine from blood vessels is nitric oxide. |  | | However, there is evidence suggesting that certain nitric oxide-containing compounds such as nitrosothiols resemble the endothelium-derived relaxing factor generated by acetylcholine more closely than does nitric oxide itself. |  | | CONCLUSIONS: S-Nitroso-L-cysteine resembles endothelium- derived relaxing factor from acetylcholine more closely than does nitric oxide. |

 | | Skeletal muscle relaxant effects are due to decreased transmission at the internuncial neuron in the spinal cord and not at the myoneural junction. |  | | Muscle relaxation is not a feature and varying degrees of hypertonus and purposeful movement occur independent of surgical stimulation. |  | | The limbic system endows information derived from internal and external events with its particular significance to the individual and thus determines purposeful behavior. |
