چکیده

the sequestration of rat leukocytes and bone marrow cells by the lung vasculature was studied using an isolated perfused rat lung preparation. the passage of latex particles of 7.6 µm in diameter and non-hematopoietic cells through the lung blood vessels was also studied. leukocytes and bone marrow cells were reversibly sequestered from circulation, whereas, latex particles and non-hematopoietic cells were removed irreversibly. continuous circulation of leukocytes or bone marrow cells results in a steady state at which circulating cells and the lung reach some kind of equilibrium wi th no net cell removal by the lung. further cell removal or release can occur by changing the circulating cell concentration. removal of ca++ and mg++ from circulating medium decreased the sequestration of leukocytes by the lung. complement activation is not involved in this process, since whole blood as well as serum free suspension of leukocytes, bone marrow cells or peritoneal cavity neutrophils showed similar patterns of sequestration. the results indicate that cell sequestration by the isolated perfused lung is a physiological process which can be considered as a suitable model of the in-vivo sequestration of blood leukocytes by the vascular system of the body. the pattern and the rate of sequestration depends on the cell type, cell concentration in circulation, and chemical factors in circulating medium. the results provide new information about the mechanisms which might be responsible for the sequestration of leukocytes by the lung vasculature in the absence of complement activation

Sustained Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction in the Isolated Perfused Rat Lung: Effect of α1-adrenergic Receptor Agonist

Background: Alveolar hypoxia induces monophasic pulmonary vasoconstriction in vivo, biphasic vasoconstriction in the isolated pulmonary artery, and controversial responses in the isolated perfused lung. Pulmonary vascular responses to sustained alveolar hypoxia have not been addressed in the isolated perfused rat lung. In this study, we investigated the effect of sustained hypoxic ventilation o...

An isolated perfused rat lung preparation.

An isolated perfused rat lung preparation (IPL) is described and its physiologic status is evaluated. The evaluation includes light and electron microscopy after perfusion and estimations of substrate utilization. ATP content, lactate production, and incorporation of glucose carbons into lipids and CO2. It is concluded that the IPL is useful for short-term metabolic and physiologic experiments ...

Lactate production in isolated perfused rat lung.

The ability of the isolated perfused rat lung to produce lactate under aerobic and hypoxic conditions has been studied. The lung has been found capable of producing lactate at a rate of 53 mumol/g dry wt per h in the presence of as great as 1 mM extracellular lactate under aerobic conditions. Essentially 100% of the lactate synthesized was derived from [U-14C]glucose. When hypoxic, the rate of ...

The isolated perfused lung.

The unique nonrespiratory functions of the lungs have become more apparent in recent years. The isolated perfused lung model offers many advantages over other methods for the study of pulmonary metabolism, xenobiotic disposition and the influence of interactions among agents of different physical forms. Detailed descriptions of the experimental preparation are elements in evaluating and compari...

The Isolated Perfused Rat Kidney

1. In the isolated rat kidney, perfused at constant pressure with a medium free from renin substrate, addition of angiotensin I to the perfusate decreases renal 'plasma' flow. 2. A peptide inhibitor, SQ 20881, of converting enzyme reduces the vasoconstrictor effect of angiotensin I up to a maximum of 87%, the degree of inhibition being dose-dependent. 3. The molar ratio of equi-effective doses ...
