Animal data support greater K+ channel role in trained swine coronary tone; hypothesis-generating for human translation.
Does exercise training alter the regulation of coronary tone in conduit arteries in Yucatan miniature swine?
Exercise training increases the contribution of K+ channels to the regulation of basal tone in conduit coronary arteries, an effect that appears dependent on intact tissue factors such as stretch.
Bowles et al. (1998) studied this question.
