Supports NO/cGMP attenuation of beta-adrenergic responses in rat models; leaves open translation to human physiology or therapy.
Nitric oxide and cGMP analogues attenuate beta-adrenergic, but not alpha-1-adrenergic, cardiac responses in isolated rat hearts and cardiomyocytes.
Ebihara et al. (1996) studied this question.
