Vasomotor responses are similar between outbred UM-HET3 and inbred C57BL/6J male and female mouse mesenteric resistance arteries
In this study, HET3 mesenteric resistance arteries were found to exhibit vasomotor responses similar to those of C57 arteries, with some indications of greater endothelium-dependent vasodilation in HET3, making it a viable mouse model for vascular studies.
