Résumé
Eugenol (EUG) is a phenylpropanoid widely used in the food and cosmetic industries. It is commonly referred to in the literature by its biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and relaxing in organs of laboratory animals, especially in rodent vessels. However, its vasorelaxant potential in human tissue, has not been investigated. Thus, this study characterizes the vasodilatory effect of EUG in the human umbilical artery (HUA). HUAs were isolated, cleaned, sectioned (3-4 mm) and placed in an organ bath (10 mL Krebs Henseleit, 37 °C; and carbogenic mixture). EUG (100-1400 μM), obtained total relaxation of electromechanical contractions induced by KCl (60 mM), and pharmacomechanical contractions (30-1200 μM), induced by serotonin (10 μM) and by histamine (10 μM), showing statistically significant concentrations: 600 μM, 400 μM and 200 μM, and EC
