Figure 2Individual and mean (horizontal line) values of RVSP in normoxic
5-HTT+/+ and
5-HTT–/– mice under ventilation with room air (normoxia) and after 5 minutes of ventilation with a hypoxic gas mixture (hypoxia). Baseline RVSP under normoxic ventilation did not differ between
5-HTT+/+ and
5-HTT–/– mice. The RVSP increase during acute hypoxia was significantly larger in
5-HTT–/– than in
5-HTT+/+ mice (
P < 0.01).
