“…Exposure to BPA can modulate the vasorelaxant response of the Human umbilical artery (HUA) by affecting key pathways such as NO/cyclic Guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)/soluble Guanylate cyclase (sGC)/Protein kinase G (PKG). Recent research revealed decreased expression of Human umbilical artery smooth muscle cells (HUASMC) and increased expression of the BKCa channel β1 subunit as a result of BPA exposure [ 46 ].…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
