Figure 4From: Calcium desensitisation in late polymicrobial sepsis is associated with loss of vasopressor sensitivity in a murine model The vascular contractile response to the thromboxane receptor agonist U46619 was attenuated in sepsis. Wire myograph-mounted femoral arteries from 5-day CLP mice developed lower tension under stimulation with U46619 (0.1 μM) compared to those from sham mice. *p < 0.05, n = 10 to 12.Back to article page
