Functional remodelling takes place permanently in the circulatory system. Whether this process also affects the anti-contractile effect of the endothelium during vasoconstrictor action is unknown. Therefore, the hypothesis was tested that the impact of the anti-contractile effect of the endothelium on agonist-induced contractions changes during early postnatal development.
