The vascular effects of peppermint ( L) on aorta in a mouse model: an and computational study.

The present study examined the vascular effects of peppermint or mint () using an abdominal aortic rings model. Concentration-response curves for mint oil were generated after precontracting isolated mouse aorta with phenylephrine. The effect of different receptor antagonists and ion channel or enzyme inhibitors on the vasorelaxant potential of mint oil were studied.
