Abstract
The present findings show that flow evokes endotheliumâdependent EDHFâtype vasodilation involving BKCa channels in penile arteries. Flowâevoked vasodilation is reduced and only of EDHFâtype in penile arteries from type 2 diabetic rats suggesting modulation of this pathway may restore endothelial function and preserve erection in diabetes. Schjørring O, Kun A, Flyvbjerg A, Kirkeby HJ, Jensen JB, and Simonsen U. Flowâevoked vasodilation is blunted in penile arteries from Zucker diabetic fatty rats. J Sex Med 2012;9:1806-1817.
