Cerebral tissue pO2 response to treadmill exercise in awake mice

Abstract We exploited two-photon microscopy and Doppler optical coherence tomography to examine the cerebral blood flow and tissue pO2 response to forced treadmill exercise in awake mice. To our knowledge, this is the first study performing both direct measure of brain tissue pO2 during acute forced...
