In young adults, the tibial vasculature demonstrates robust NO-mediated vasodilation, but tHb is delayed and diminishes faster compared to LBF, predominately reflective of skeletal muscle responses. Thus, NO-mediated vasodilation in bone may be characteristically different from other vascular beds.
