Insulin has important vasodilatory effects in the peripheral circulation, but less is known about insulin's role in cerebrovascular control. Herein, we hypothesized both systemic (intravenous) and local (intranasal) insulin administration would increase indices of cerebral blood flow and reduce cerebrovascular compliance (Ci) in young adults. Participants were assigned to one of four separate protocols.

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) and its receptors are linked to increases in sensitivity of the chemoreceptors to hypoxic stress and the development of hypertension in preclinical models. We hypothesized ET receptor antagonism would lower resting blood pressure (BP) as well as the acute BP response to chemoreflex stress. Twenty-four men (31 ± 5 years, 26 ± 3 kg/m) completed two study visits (control, bosentan).
