Abstract
In addition to efficient energy metabolism, the ability to exercise is highly dependent on the well-coordinated neuroendocrine control of cardiovascular function. Catecholamines increase oxygen delivery during exercise by enhancing cardiac output, splenic erythrocyte release, and skeletal muscle flow. Furthermore, cardiovascular homeostasis is maintained by changes in plasma renin activity and in plasma concentrations of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), arginine vasopressin, and aldosterone.
