Abstract
Objective: Although estrogens have been shown to be vasoactive hormones, the vascular effects of testosterone are not well defined. Little is known about the in vitro effects of testosterone on isolated arteries. The purpose of this experimental prospective study was to assess the direct effect of testosterone on isolated sheep coronary artery in vitro.
