Background: Carbon monoxide alters cardiovascular function through its actions as a signaling molecule and by limiting oxygen delivery in the blood, favouring pro-dilatory and anti-constrictor effects within the vasculature. The impacts of mild carbon monoxide exposure on vascular responses to...

Βeta-adrenergic receptors and opposition of evoked sympathetic vasoconstriction: Effects of sex and exercise training
DownloadFall 2016
Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system evokes the release of neurotransmitters and produces vasoconstriction that is primarily mediated by the binding of norepinephrine (NE) to alpha-adrenergic receptors. However, NE may also bind to beta (β)-adrenergic receptors and produce vasodilation...
