Urocortin II has previously been shown in anesthetized pigs to increase coronary blood flow through activation of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) pathway and involvement of the subtype 2 of corticotropin releasing factor receptors (CRFR2). However, little information has been available regarding the intracellular signalling through these receptors and leading to the release of nitric oxide (NO).
