Blood vascular

Blood is a unique tissue in that it is (obviously) a fluid. A typical 70 kg adult male has about 51 of whole blood coursing his vasculature at any time. The dynamics of the blood-vascular system are impressive many millions of cells are released from the bone marrow each day a red cell will travel over 250 miles (400 km) during its relatively short life span (120 days), and an endothelial cell lining the lumen of a blood vessel will... [Pg.127]

The other hormone of note synthesized by kidney is erythropoietin (EPO), a glycosylated peptide hormone (molecular weight approximately 50 000), which promotes red blood cell formation and is secreted in response to poor oxygen perfusion (hypoxia) of the kidney. This, along with the control of blood pressure via the RAA system illustrates the importance of the kidney in regulating aspects of the blood vascular system. Further details of EPO can be found in Chapter 5. [Pg.279]

Exposure to allylamine in industries synthesizing pharmaceuticals and other commercial products is a known occurrence. Allylamines are known to cause adverse effects, especially to the liver, kidney, heart and/or blood vascular systems in experimental humans. It has been reported that exposure to methyl-, ethyl-, heptyl-, and allylamines results in severe pathologic lesions of the above-mentioned vital organs in animals and humans.72 High doses of allylamines are always associated with the induction of fatal cardiovascular injury.72,73... [Pg.403]

The lymphatic system is a series of vessels for transporting back to the circulation, the fluid, cells and macromolecules that escape from the blood vascular system. It is therefore an essential part of the circulatory system. In normal physiology the lymphatics therefore play a key role in fluid homeostasis and immune cell trafficking. In pathological conditions aberrant lymphatic vessel function is associated with conditions such as lymphoedema and cancer (Baldwin et al 2002). [Pg.38]

Stacker I would imagine so. There have been studies showing that in various transplantation models the rejection previously thought to be supported by the blood vascular system is now occurring via the lymphatics. When people use specific markers for lymphatics, certain kidney rejection models show that the vessels are predominately lymphatic in their nature. In most of the other situations, I don t think people have examined those models in detail. This is how new the field is. [Pg.45]

US pharmacologists Robert Furchgott (1916-2009) and Louis Ignarro (1941- ) demonstrate the importance of nitric oxide as a signal molecule in the blood vascular system. [Pg.91]

In an extended study of experimental tissue reactions following intravenous injections of silica and other dusts Simson and Strachan (1940) stated that the distribution of the microscopically visible dust in the organs and tissues of the rabbit in the early stage is the same irrespective of whether the dust later exhibits toxic or non-toxic properties. The chief situations in which it can be found are the organs provided with sinusoids and an active reticulo-endothelial tissue in relation to the blood vascular system, e.g. liver, spleen, bone-marrow and lymph-nodes. [Pg.344]
