Aging and muscle fiber type alter K(+) channel contributions to the myogenic response in skeletal muscle arterioles

Aging diminishes myogenic tone in arterioles from skeletal muscle. Recent evidence indicates that both large-conductance Ca(2+)-activated (BK(Ca)) and voltage-dependent (K(V)) K(+) channels mediate negative feedback control of the myogenic response. Thus we tested the hypothesis that aging increases...
