Ilustración, cómic y compromiso social. Crónica de una exposición en movimiento
[EN] This article describes an exhibition project that puts to value the relationship between graphic illustration, comics, and social commitment through numerous examples of commissions and personal works carried out by today’s Valencian authors. Divided into eleven thematic areas or social causes, the exhibition offers a wide array of styles and poetics, focused on acting as speaker of the claims of various invisible groups
Halothane inhibits endothelium-dependent relaxation elicited by acetylcholine in human isolated pulmonary arteries.
This study examined whether a clinically relevant concentration of the volatile anaesthetic halothane modifies the endothelium-dependent relaxation produced by acetylcholine (3 nM-10 microM), histamine (1 pM-0.1 microM) and anti-human immunoglobulin E (1:1000) in human isolated pulmonary arteries submaximally precontracted with noradrenaline. An inhibitor of nitric oxide formation, N(G)-nitro-L-arginine (100 microM), attenuated acetylcholine-induced relaxation but failed to inhibit histamine- and anti-human immunoglobulin E-induced relaxation. Indomethacin (2.8 microM, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor) preferentially reduced the relaxation to histamine and anti-human IgE. Halothane (2%) significa…
