Regulatory mechanisms of skeletal muscle microcirculation
3-dimensional image of skeletal muscle capillary
What does our research project focus on?
Capillary blood flow in vivo imaging in living rodents
Blood flow responses during muscle contraction
Critical illness and muscle atrophy, muscle blood flow
Direct measurement of oxygen dynamics in skeletal muscle
By using phosphorescence quenching technique, oxygen pressure in capillary or interstitium can be measured during muscle contraction.
What can you learn in our lab?
