Does not support adenosine mediation of hypoxia-induced muscle hyperemia; hypothesis-generating for local vasodilator mechanisms in healthy humans.
Does moderate systemic hypoxia and adenosine receptor inhibition alter skeletal muscle blood flow and its heterogeneity during exercise in healthy young men?
Increased blood flow during small muscle mass exercise in moderate hypoxia is confined to contracting muscles and does not appear to be directly mediated by adenosine.
