title: Changes in the distensibility of the cat aortic arch induced by noradrenaline.
abstract: In the isolated preparation of the aortic arch of the cat, noradrenaline (NA) reduced at low pre-loads, and increased at high pre-loads, the arterial wall distensibility. For each dose of NA, the changes were directly related to the pressure level in the system.
