Why the study?
Does advancing age impair the vasodilatory capacity of human skeletal muscle feed arteries?
Does advancing age impair the vasodilatory capacity of human skeletal muscle feed arteries?
Advancing age significantly blunts endothelium-dependent vasodilatory capacity and kinetics in human skeletal muscle feed arteries, potentially contributing to exercise intolerance in the elderly.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Age-related endothelial dysfunction may contribute to exercise intolerance; leaves open causal mechanisms and intervention targets in aging vasculature.
Park et al. (2015) studied this question.
