The Vascular Characteristics
… suggested that interactions between the altered cutaneous vasculature and melanocytes may have an influence on the development of pigmentation. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the vascular characteristics of melasma and expression of VEGF, a major angiogenic factor, and its …

Haemodynamic responses to heat stress and hypohydration in resting and exercising humans: Implications for the regulation of skeletal muscle blood flow
… by vasodilation in both skeletal muscle and skin vasculatures. Therefore in line with concomitant elevations in blood flow, skeletal muscle and skin vasodilation contribute to increases in leg blood flow and vascular conductance with whole body heat stress. Furthermore, increases in leg muscle and …

Adenosine receptors in cutaneous thermal hyperemia and active vasodilation in humans
Mechanisms underlying the cutaneous vasodilation response to local skin heating and whole body heating in humans remain unresolved. Although nitric oxide (NO) is known to contribute to these responses, it remains unclear as to the source of NO. Adenosine receptors induce vasodilation in many human …
