Skeletal muscle blood flow is closely coupled to metabolic demand, and its regulation is
believed to be mainly the result of the interplay of neural vasoconstrictor activity and locally …

During exercise, oxygen delivery to skeletal muscle is elevated to meet the increased
oxygen demand. The increase in blood flow to skeletal muscle is achieved by vasodilators …

We tested the hypothesis that mechanical deformation of forearm blood vessels via acute
increases in extravascular pressure elicits rapid vasodilatation in humans. In healthy adults …

A striking characteristic of the blood flow adaptation at exercise onset is the immediate and
substantial increase in the first few (0–5 s) seconds of exercise. The purpose of this mini …

For exercise to be sustained, it is essential that adequate blood flow be provided to skeletal
muscle. The local vascular control mechanisms involved in regulating muscle perfusion …

This review focuses on how blood flow to contracting skeletal muscles is regulated during
exercise in humans. The idea is that blood flow to the contracting muscles links oxygen in …

The mechanism for exercise hyperaemia is a century old enigma. Much of the research on
the topic has focused on the factors controlling skeletal muscle blood flow during steady …

Exercise can increase skeletal muscle blood flow by 100‐fold over values observed at rest.
As this value was 3 to 4 times higher than so‐called 'textbook'values at the time it raised a …

There is a rapid increase in blood flow to active skeletal muscle with the onset of exercise,
but the mechanism (s) eliciting this increase remains elusive. We hypothesized that the rapid …

At the onset of exercise there is a rapid increase in skeletal muscle vascular conductance
and blood flow. Several mechanisms involved in the regulation of muscle perfusion have …
