Popis: Findings presented in this article are the first to show patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus have blunted hyperemic and vasodilatory responses to dynamic handgrip exercise. Moreover, we illustrate greater α1-adrenergic-mediated vasoconstriction may contribute to our initial observations. Collectively, these data suggest patients with type 2 diabetes may have impaired functional sympatholysis, which can contribute to their reduced exercise capacity.
