Authors: Charles E. Norton, Elizabeth A. Grunz-Borgmann, Marcia L. Hart, Benjamin W. Jones, Craig L. Franklin, Erika M. Boerman
From the authors: “Our study is the first to show that [inflammatory bowel disease] causes profound impairment of sensory vasodilation and inhibition of sympathetic vasoconstriction in mesenteric arteries.”
This study is highlighted as one of May’s “best of the best” as part of the American Physiological Society’s APSselect program.
