Abstract
Summary.: ATP is a potent vasodilator agent, the minimal active doses amounting to 1/5–1/15 of those of acetylcholine when calculated as equiniolar concentrations. The vasodilator action seems to be due to a direct action on the vessels. On intravenous injection ATP is rapidly destroyed, presumably in the lungs.Keywords
