Abstract
The permeability influencing effect of nitric oxide was studied by means of an isolated perfused mesentery preparation in combination with a intravital/fluorescence microscopic set up. As a fluorescent marker served FITC-dextran mol wt 70,000 daltons. Tissue treatment was performed by application of NO-donors like SNP or GTN. Additionally the effects of bradykinin, L-nitroarginine or the combination of both were tested in regard to a permeability modulation. The results point out that NO-donors did not enhance microvascular permeability, whereas the permeability increasing effect of bradykinin is mediated by an NO-independent pathway.
