“…This antagonism is of the competitive type (pA2 values from 8.4 to 9.1) in most blood vessels, e.g., rat caudal and mesenteric arteries and portal and external jugular veins, rabbit femoral, pulmonary, and tibia1 arteries and aorta, canine gastrosplenic, internal carotid, and middle cerebral arteries and gastrosplenic veins, bovine coronary and pulmonary arteries, and human hand and basilar arteries and saphenous veins (5,92,139,147,159,163,234,239,265,267,269,274,275). However, the antagonism is of a noncompetitive type or of a dual competitive/ noncompetitive type in a relatively small number of other blood vessels, e.g., canine saphenous veins, basilar and coronary arteries, cat middle cerebral arteries, rabbit basilar arteries, and human hand veins (5,6,22,31,93,183,203,244,265,274).…”
