American Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology

Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes research on physiological regulation, integration, and comparative studies across various systems and organisms. Recent articles explore topics such as sympathetic nerve activity and blood pressure regulation at high altitude, sex differences in exercise-induced oxidative stress and inflammation, the impact of chronic pain on memory and microglia, metabolic rate suppression in torpid hummingbirds, and the role of specific neuronal populations in cold defense. Other studies investigate the effects of unilateral lower limb suspension on muscle function, salt-sensitive hypertension in aging rats, hormonal mechanisms of pH compensation in marine fish, blood pressure variability in post-traumatic stress disorder, and the diving reflex during apnea. The journal also covers research on microvascular reactivity in post-COVID-19 syndrome, thermoregulation and cognition in spaceflight, metabolic reprogramming in cancer cachexia, intracardiac nervous system control of the heart, interactions between hypoxemia and hypercapnia on vascular conductance, and age-related changes in T cells.
