Does acute blood flow restriction during resistance exercise enhance angiogenic gene expression?
Acute blood flow restriction during resistance exercise enhances the expression of angiogenic genes in skeletal muscle.
Acute BFR increases postexercise expression of mRNA related to skeletal muscle angiogenesis, plausibly in response to changes in muscle Hb concentrations.
