The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that vasoconstriction in the mesenteric and renal circulations is greater at both submaximal and maximal exercise intensities with advancing age. Arterial blood pressure, heart rate, and mesenteric, renal, and iliac (hindlimb) artery blood flow velocities were measured before and during graded treadmill exercise in mature (12 mo) and senescent (24 mo) male Fischer 344 rats. During treadmill running at mild, moderate, and maximal exercise intensities (approximately 45, 70, and 100% of maximal oxygen uptake), the increases in arterial pressure were similar in the mature and senescent animals, whereas heart rate rose less in the older group (P < 0.05). Mesenteric and renal flow velocities declined and vascular resistances increased from resting levels in both groups in response to graded exercise; however, the magnitudes of the increases in both mesenteric and renal vascular resistance were significantly augmented in the older rats at the moderate and maximal workloads. Hindlimb blood flow velocity increased and resistance declined from resting levels at each exercise intensity in both groups. In contrast to the visceral and renal adjustments, the magnitudes of the changes in both hindlimb flow and resistance were similar for the two age groups at all exercise intensities. These findings support the hypothesis that mesenteric and renal vasoconstriction is augmented in senescent Fischer 344 rats during exercise at moderate and maximal intensities but not at mild workloads. Despite these regional differences, the maintenance of arterial pressure is not altered at either submaximal or maximal exercise intensities with advancing age.
