Augmented cardiopulmonary and integrative sympathetic baroreflexes but attenuated peripheral vasoconstriction with age.
Based on observations of smaller increases in limb vascular resistance during acute incremental hypovolemia in older adults, cardiopulmonary and integrative (combined cardiopulmonary and arterial) baroreflex control of sympatho-circulatory function is thought to be impaired with aging in humans. We tested this hypothesis directly by making intraneural measurements of skeletal muscle sympathetic...
متن کاملAttenuated peripheral vasoconstriction during an orthostatic challenge in older men.
BACKGROUND orthostatic hypotension is common in older men and associated with morbidity and mortality. During orthostatic challenges, older men maintain their blood pressure by an augmented increase in total peripheral resistance. Changes in the leg vascular bed contribute importantly to blood pressure regulation during orthostatic challenges, partly because of blood pooling in the legs. Little...
متن کاملPeripheral vasoconstriction associated with hyperpotassemia.
• Experimental conditions have been described in which constriction of the small blood vessels in the cheek pouch of the golden hamster was found in association with increased serum potassium levels. The arterioles of adrenalectomized hamsters became progressively constricted, starting three to four days after operation until death. An increase in serum potassium occurred during the same period...
متن کاملRelative contributions of cardiopulmonary and sinoaortic baroreflexes in causing sympathetic activation in the human skeletal muscle circulation during orthostatic stress.
The aim of this study was to reexamine the hypothesis that cardiopulmonary baroreflexes are more important than sinoaortic baroreflexes in causing vasoconstriction in the skeletal muscle circulation during orthostatic stress. We recorded muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) with microelectrodes in the peroneal nerve (and forearm blood flow with venous occlusion plethysmography) in normal su...
متن کاملRenal vasoconstriction is augmented during exercise in patients with peripheral arterial disease
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) patients have augmented blood pressure increases during exercise, heightening their cardiovascular risk. However, it is unknown whether patients have exaggerated renal vasoconstriction during exercise and if oxidative stress contributes to this response. Eleven PAD patients and 10 controls (CON) performed 4-min mild, rhythmic, plantar flexion exercise of increa...
