Fig. 1Comparison of changes in ANP secretion (A) and atrial contractility (B) in response to (a) CORM-2, (b) CORM-3, (c) hemin, and (d) ZnPP.
Values are expressed by the relative percent change from the mean of the first five control values (fraction no. 1–5) and the last five peak values (fraction no. 21–25). CORM, carbon monoxide releasing molecule; ANP, atrial natriuretic peptide; ZnPP, zinc porphyrin; APP, atrial pulse pressure. Legends are the same as in
. Values are expressed as the means ± SEM. ***
vs. vehicle group, p < 0.005
