Abstract
Wire myography enables the investigation of vascular tone and function of small vessels. The vessel of interest is harvested from the experimental model of choice, and then mounted as ring preparations onto a four-channel wire myograph. This technique enables ex vivo measurements of isometric response of vessels to different pharmacological agents. Here we describe in detail how to dissect, mount, and normalize vessels for the wire myography technique. We will also provide examples of how to construct concentration-response curves to a contractile and vasodilatory pharmacological agent.
