Fig. 6 Graph showing the concentration-response characteristics to homocysteine (HC ) of both intact (●) and denuded (○) arteries. Arteries were contracted with an intermediate concentration of norepinephrine (NE ), and homocysteine was added cumulatively to the arteriograph bath. *P <.05; **P <.01.
