Abstract
The principle aim of the studies was to characterise the responses to 5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) occuring in the aorta of a primate species, the common marmoset. Further aims were to determine whether the 5-HT- induced response of the aorta is representative of the serotonergic responses of other vessels from the marmoset, in particular the coronary artery. Studies were extended to vascular disease states following a high lipid diet and aortic balloon-catheterisation. Results are discussed.
