文摘

Unilateral ligature-induced periodontitis affects rat aorta vasomotriciy.

Endothelial-dependent vasorelaxation and adrenergic vasoconstriction are impaired.

Endothelium removal, iNOS and COX-2 blockade restore the impaired vasomotricity.

No periodontal bacteria were detected in the aorta.

Aorta from rats with periodontitis show decreased eNOS and increased iNOS and COX-2.
