Electrical resistance of a capillary endothelium
The electrical resistance of consecutive segments of capillaries has been determined by a method in which the microvessels were treated as a leaky, infinite cable. A two-dimensional analytical model to describe the potential field in response to intracapillary current injection was formulated. The model allowed determination of the electrical resistance from four sets of data: the capillary rad...
متن کاملGrowth control in capillary endothelium.
The phenomenon of angiogenesis depends upon several biological processes including enzymatic degradation of matrix, chemotaxis, lumen formation, tissue remodeling, and matrix control of differentiation. These processes are expressed in a sequential order during the growth of a capillary and during its regression. Capillary endothelial cells and endothelial cells of embryonic and fetal origin ha...
متن کاملTranscytosis of albumin in capillary endothelium
We have used a variety of immunocytochemical procedures to localize albumin in transit through the capillary endothelium of the murine myocardium and thereby identify endothelial cell structures involved in albumin efflux. The most informative results were obtained with a protocol that included (a) removal of endogenous albumin by perfusion of the heart with PBS supplemented with 14 mM glucose,...
متن کاملAging impairs electrical conduction along endothelium of resistance arteries through enhanced Ca2+-activated K+ channel activation.
OBJECTIVE Intercellular conduction of electrical signals underlies spreading vasodilation of resistance arteries. Small- and intermediate-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels of endothelial cells serve a dual function by initiating hyperpolarization and modulating electrical conduction. We tested the hypothesis that regulation of electrical signaling by small- and intermediate-conductance...
متن کاملCapillary resistance in rheumatoid arthritis.
For more than 50 years, tests of "capillary resistance" have been used to measure the facility with which petechiae may be produced experimentally, mainly with a view to detecting latent purpuric tendencies. Hare and Miller (1951) listed the many different methods which have been evolved, and assessed the merits and demerits of techniques in general use. "Pressure" tests, such as the snake veno...
