Figure 7From: Calcium desensitisation in late polymicrobial sepsis is associated with loss of vasopressor sensitivity in a murine model The vascular contractile response to depolarisation with high-K + HT solution was attenuated in sepsis. Wire myograph-mounted femoral arteries from 5-day CLP mice developed lower tension under stimulation with a depolarising high-K+ HT solution compared to those from sham mice. *p < 0.05, n = 9 to 13.Back to article page
