The VIP doses were designed to reproduce plasma concentrations seen after mesenteric ischaemia. The vasodilator action of VIP varied between different segments of the circulation and these differences in sensitivity were observed for both the degree and duration of the vaso-active action. A sustained vasodilation was detected in the coeliac artery and portal vein vascular beds during a 30-min VIP infusion. VIP is likely to be a contributory factor involved in the development of circulatory collapse during reperfusion after experimental mesenteric ischaemia. | Gov't Doc #: | 3234619 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/12945 | Journal: | Digestion | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3234619 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Animals Blood Circulation.drug effects Celiac Artery.drug effects Hemodynamics.drug effects Histidine.pharmacology Infusions, Intravenous Isoleucine.pharmacology Mesenteric Arteries.drug effects Mesenteric Vascular Occlusion.chemically induced Methionine.pharmacology Sheep Splanchnic Circulation.drug effects Vascular Resistance.drug effects Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide.pharmacology Vasodilation.drug effects |
