Summary

THE CRYOPROTECTIVE EFFECT OF DMSO AND FETAL CALF SERUM (FCS) ON CORONARY ENDOTHELIUM AND ENDOTHELIUM-DEPENDENT RELAXATION RESPONSES WAS STUDIED IN ISOLATED CANINE CORONARY ARTERIES FOLLOWING CRYOSTORAGE AT 198 K (-75 DEG C). THE RESULTS DEMONSTRATE THAT SLOW FREEZING IN KREBS-HENSELEIT SOLUTION CONTAINING DMSO AND FCS PROVIDES GOOD PRESERVATION OF THE VASCULAR SMOOTH MUSCLE FUNCTION AND ENDOTHELIUM-DEPENDENT VASODILATORY RESPONSES.
