Example sentences for: vasodilation

How can you use “vasodilation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

The vasodilator effect of acetazolamide on the cerebral vasculature has been characterized by both PET and transcranial Doppler (TCD) studies [ 21 22 ] . At a dose of 15 mg/kg the effect of acetazolamide is thought to be supramaximal with maximal cerebral vasodilation induced within about 20 minutes.
The hyperemic cerebrovascular response to hypercapnia or acetazolamide is not inhibited by nitric oxide synthase inhibitors such as N G-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) suggesting that NO does not mediate vasoreactivity [ 23 24 ] . The mechanism of acetazolamide vasodilation, beyond smooth muscle intracellular and extracellular acidosis due carbonic anhydrase inhibition, is unclear.
Biological functions attributed to NO include vasodilation [ 47], inhibition of platelet adhesion and aggregation [ 48], reduction of expression of adhesion molecules and chemokines [ 49, 50, 51, 52], and suppression of cell growth and migration [ 53, 54].
A prolonged half time to recovery has been associated with a decreased nitric oxide and prostanoid production [ 8 ] and a loss of endothelium dependent vasodilation [ 9 ] . Reduced vascular reactivity is associated with many diseases that are associated with aging [ 15 16 17 ] . We did not find activity effects on half time to recovery.
Acetazolamide, on the other hand, was hypothesized to identify areas of decreased cerebral perfusion following maximal cerebral vasodilation in Fabry disease compared to controls.
