Abstract
The regulation of blood flow to skeletal muscle has, for many years, been the subject of much research (Hudlická, 1973) with the result that nowadays many phenomena can be explained by the presence of local oxygen sensors which serve to regulate the flow in order to maintain an adequate oxygen supply to the tissue (Granger and Shepherd, 1973). For example, the vasodilation which occurs during hypoxia almost certainly takes place as a result of signals from such sensors, and there is strong evidence to suggest that the majority of these sensors may be located in the tissue cells (Kessler et al., 1983).
