Does sympathetic vasoconstriction contribute to metabolism: Perfusion matching in exercising skeletal muscle?
The process of matching skeletal muscle blood flow to metabolism is complex and multi-factorial. In response to exercise, increases in cardiac output, perfusion pressure and local vasodilation facilitate an intensity-dependent increase in muscle blood flow. Concomitantly, sympathetic nerve activity...
