Rodents rely on sympathetic-mediated changes in vessel diameter to regulate blood flow during exposure to cold. However, vasoconstriction is limited to the exposed skin of the tail. Vasodilation occurs in organs (such as skeletal muscle and BAT) that rely on an increase in local blood flow to enhance tissue oxygen demands of cold-exposed energy ...
