Application of local heat induces capillary recruitment in the Pallid bat wing

RJ Widmer, RH Stewart, MF Young… - American Journal …, 2007 - journals.physiology.org
Skin blood flow increases in response to local heat due to sensorineural and nitric oxide
(NO)-mediated dilation. It has been previously demonstrated that arteriolar dilation is …

Local heat produces a shear-mediated biphasic response in the thermoregulatory microcirculation of the Pallid bat wing

RJ Widmer, JE Laurinec, MF Young… - American Journal …, 2006 - journals.physiology.org
Investigators report that local heat causes an increase in skin blood flow consisting of two
phases. The first is solely sensory neural, and the second is nitric oxide mediated. We …
