The endothelium in rat mesenteric vascular beds has been demonstrated to regulate vascular tone by releasing mainly endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF), which is involved in the activation of K+ channels and gap-junctions. However, it is unclear whether the endothelial system in mouse...
