Abstract:Norepinephrine is responsible for ~60% of the reflex cutaneous VC response in young individuals, whereas the remainder is due to a coreleased sympathetic adrenergic neurotransmitter(s) that has yet to be identified. There is conflicting evidence supporting neuropeptide Y in this role; however, other putative cotransmitters have yet to be tested in human skin. We hypothesize that ATP contributes to the reflex cutaneous VC response to whole‐body cooling (Tsk = 30.5 oC). Three microdialysis (MD) fibers were place… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
