Vascular Responses of Isolated, Perfused Canine Femoral Arteries and Veins to Vasoactive Substances

Abstract
The stainless steel cannula inserting method was used to observe vascular effects of 9 vasoactive substances on the isolated, perfused canine femoral artery and vein. In the vein, the order of potency for inducing vasoconstriction was norepinephrine > histamine = phenylephrine = serotonin > prostaglandin F2.alpha. > ATP > xylazine > tyramine .mchgt. KCl. It was demonstrated that the cannula inserting method is useful for observatios of venous vascular reactivity.
