Propofol prevents human umbilical vein endothelial cell injury from ang II-induced apoptosis by activating the ACE2-(1-7)-Mas axis and eNOS phosphorylation Propofol stimulates nitric oxide release from cultured porcine aortic endothelial cells Effects of propofol on endothelial cells subjected to a peroxynitrite donor Effects of propofol on hemodynamic and inflammatory responses to endotoxemia in rats ./cache/cord-317784-fl9zbgad.txt ./txt/cord-317784-fl9zbgad.txt
