Does combined inhibition of NOS and PG reduce skeletal muscle blood flow during exercise in healthy humans?
Combined inhibition of nitric oxide and prostaglandins significantly reduces skeletal muscle blood flow during dynamic exercise, demonstrating their synergistic role in exercise hyperemia.
Boushel et al. (2002) studied this question.
