Post exercise hypotension is not mediated by the serotonergic system in borderline hypertensive individuals
Abstract
Recent evidence from our laboratory and others have suggested that the mechanism for a decrease in resting blood pressure after an acute bout of exercise is a centrally mediated decrease in total peripheral resistance. This study examined the effect of the central serotonergic system on post exercise hypotension (PEH) in 11 borderline hypertensive individuals (nine male, two female) aged 24.5 ± 5.1 years.
