Skeletal Muscle Sympathetic Vasoconstrictor Control Following Short-Term Mild- and Heavy-Intensity Exercise Training
DownloadFall 2013
The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the effects of short-term endurance exercise training (ET) on sympathetic vasoconstriction in resting and contracting skeletal muscle. To achieve these aims, rats were exercise trained on a motorized treadmill and an anesthetised whole animal in situ...

The effect of exercise training on metaboreflex regulation of heart rate and blood pressure
DownloadSpring 2015
The metaboreflex is a cardiovascular reflex which activates the sympathetic nervous system when a mismatch between oxygen delivery and demand occurs during exercise; metabolic by-products accumulate in the interstitium of skeletal muscle tissue and stimulate afferent nerve fibers. This in turn...
