Regional Blood Flow, Stress Effects

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter

Abstract

Stressful stimuli, including cold, infection, and perception of danger, reduce blood flow to the thermoregulatory cutaneous vascular beds. This sympathetically mediated cutaneous vasoconstriction is co-ordinated by forebrain centers and by relays in the medullary raphe/parapyramidal region. Drugs used for mental stress reverse cutaneous vasoconstriction by interacting with serotonergic and dopaminergic receptors. © 2007
