Abstract excerpt

The disturbances in coronary vasomotor tone have been extensively analyzed, but the exact molecular mechanisms underlying abnormal coronary vasomotion remain to be elucidated. It has been suggested that impaired coronary vasoreactivity can be the expression of a defect in vascular smooth muscle cells. A mouse model of human variant (vasospastic) angina has been recently obtained by disruption of Kir6.1/Kcnj8, a...
