Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Control (Lactated Ringer's)

This intervention is meant to serve as a control by which the experimental sites are compared to, to assess effectiveness.

DRUG

Tempol

This intervention is meant to assess the impact of superoxide on vasodilator responses by scavenging available superoxide.

DRUG

Apocynin

This intervention is meant to assess the impact of NADPH oxidase-derived superoxide on vasodilator responses by inhibiting the enzyme NADPH oxidase.

DRUG

Allopurinol

This intervention is meant to assess the impact of xanthine oxidase-derived superoxide on vasodilator responses by inhibiting the enzyme xanthine oxidase.
