Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors mediate sustained sympathoexcitation during high altitude hypoxia in humans

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.

Local redistribution of blood under the effect of fixation stress against a background of hypokinesia [PDF]

open access: yes
Fixation stress was used as a model of emotional disturbance. The effect of previous restrictions on mobility on the local redistribution of blood resulting from fixation stress was examined.

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors modulate exercise‐induced sympathetic activation in healthy humans during moderate‐intensity hypoxic exercise

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This randomized cross‐over trial (N = 12) addressed the hypothesis that selective reduction of pulmonary arterial pressure (i.e. manipulation of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptor activation) during hypoxic exercise would reduce sympathetic outflow (muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA)) in healthy humans.

Energetic microdomains and the vascular control of neuronal and muscle excitability: Toward a unified model

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability.

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Role of reactive oxygen species in mediating peripheral hypoxic vasodilation and sympathoexcitation at high altitude

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude acclimatisation increases muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) via activation of the arterial chemoreflex, pulmonary arterial baroreceptors and resetting of the sympathetic vascular baroreflex. However attempting to silence these mechanisms only partially normalises MSNA, implicating other contributory ...

Respiration Can Trigger Cerebrovascular Reactivity: A Novel Method to Quantify Cerebrovascular Resistance Dynamics Using Real‐Time Phase‐Contrast MRI

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 1, Page 83-95, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To directly quantify respiration‐driven cerebrovascular resistance dynamics (CRD) using a gas‐free MRI framework based on the internal‐to‐external artery carotid flow ratio (ratio_Q). Theory and Methods Two independent datasets (n = 10 and n = 17) were used to evaluate repeatability and to compare breathing conditions.

Cardiovascular β‐Adrenergic Receptor Distribution and Function: Influence of Species, Sex, Age, and Tissue

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2026.
Estrogen modulates β‐AR signaling in a context‐dependent manner influenced by species, sex, age, tissue, and vascular health, highlighting challenges in translating findings from experimental models to human cardiovascular physiology. ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading global cause of morbidity and mortality, with notable sex‐specific ...
