You will be shown an abstract from a biomedical research paper. Given this abstract, your task is to extract all unique entities of the following types: ["Chemical"].

Please return the output as a JSON object of the format: {"Chemical": ["Arsenic", ...]}. The keys should be entity types and values should be lists of extracted entities belonging to the corresponding type. If you cannot find entities belonging to a specific type, the value should be [].

Only output the JSON object and do not include any additional text.

Abstract:

The Lignan (-)-Cubebin Inhibits Vascular Contraction and Induces Relaxation Via Nitric Oxide Activation in Isolated Rat Aorta. Cubebin, the most abundant lignan in Piper cubeba, has been described as having several effects as trypanocidal, antimycobacterial, antispasmodic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic. This study investigated the vasorelaxant effect produced by (-)-cubebin in isolated rat aortic rings pre-contracted with phenylephrine (Phe), and the possible mechanism involved in this event was evaluated. Endothelium-dependent relaxation was evoked by acetylcholine and (-)-cubebin in intact aortic rings, while endothelium-independent vasorelaxation was elicited by sodium nitroprusside and (-)-cubebin in denuded rings. Cumulative concentration-response curves for Phe (10(-10) -10(-5)  M) were determined for endothelium-intact and endothelium-denuded aortic rings in either the presence or absence of (-)-cubebin. Dose-response curves were also constructed for pre-incubation of vascular rings with Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (a non-specific nitric oxide synthase inhibitor), indomethacin (an unspecific cyclooxygenase inhibitor), and 1H-[1,2,4] oxadiazolo [4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) (a guanylyl cyclase inhibitor). (-)-Cubebin was found to exert a vasorelaxant effect irrespective of the presence of endothelium, which was abolished by pretreatment with L-NAME and ODQ, but not with indomethacin. In addition, (-)-cubebin was able to reduce Phe contraction in the case of intact rings. These results suggest that (-)-cubebin promotes vasorelaxation via NO/cGMP pathway in rat aorta, without prostacyclin involvement. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
