Effect of oxytocin as a partial agonist at vasoconstrictor vasopressin receptors on the human isolated uterine artery
British journal of pharmacology ·doi:10.1038/sj.bjp.0701273

1. The effect of oxytocin on endothelium-intact and endothelium-denuded segments of the human uterine artery rings was investigated. 2. In both types of preparation oxytocin induced contraction of human uterine artery with similar potency a…

Characterization of arginine vasopressin actions in human uterine artery: lack of role of the vascular endothelium
British journal of pharmacology ·doi:10.1111/j.1476-5381.1995.tb15039.x

1. The effect of arginine vasopressin (AVP) on human uterine artery rings, both intact and denuded of endothelium, was investigated. 2. Initially, AVP (63 pM-32 nM) induced concentration-dependent contraction of human uterine artery (pD2 = …
