Contribution of potassium channels to myogenic response in skeletal muscle arterioles: effects of age and fiber type
In isolated skeletal muscle arterioles, increasing transmural pressure causes an increase in constriction. This active myogenic response varies with age and fiber type. Increased transmural pressure activates both Ca2+-activated (KCa) potassium channels and voltage-dependent (Kv) potassium channels;...
