Figure 4 Effect of PTX on dispersed antral circular smooth muscle myocytes from PTX-pretreated rats contraction to bethanechol (10-7 mol/L and 10-8 mol/L). Myocytes from PTX-treated rats contracted less than myocytes from control rats. Each point represents mean ± SE; of the percentage of the control cells diastolic length (no bethanechol). At least 50 myocytes per point were calculated, P < 0.005; n = 7 and 11. Dotted bars represent control animals; solid bars PTX-pretreated animals.
