Biography

The following study was performed to investigate whether age-related differences in contractile force between veins and arteries exist. Data were taken from experiments of various in vitro projects performed by the same persons. Macroscopically unchanged human vessels were obtained from bypass surgery and from surgical removal of varicose veins. Parameters for contractile responses to 5-hydroxytryptamine, noradrenaline, U46619 and potassium chloride were calculated on vascular ring preparations in organ bath studies
