Abstract
In calves with hypoxic pulmonary hypertension, resistance was reduced by 40 +/- 3% with normoxia, 19 +/- 4% with verapamil, and 60 +/- 1% with hexoprenaline. It is possible that the increased resistance during normoxia is due to partly to vasoconstriction rather than solely to vascular thickening, and that the vasoconstriction is due to an abnormality in calcium metabolism by the hypertensive vasculature.Entities:
