THE MECHANISM OF ANTIDROMIC VASODILATATION [PDF]
1. In the skin, in response to stimulation of the posterior root fibres, histamine is released into the venous blood. The release of histamine is paralleled by an increase in blood flow.2. In muscles, antidromic stimulation of the posterior roots does not release histamine nor increase the blood flow.3.

The key role of nitric oxide in hypoxia: hypoxic vasodilation and energy supply-demand matching [PDF]
Significance: a mismatch between energy supply and demand induces tissue hypoxia with the potential to cause cell death and organ failure. Whenever arterial oxygen concentration is reduced, increases in blood flow - 'hypoxic vasodilation' - occur in an ...
