Diffusion of glucose, insulin, inulin, and Evans blue protein into thoracic duct lymph of man.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Immunoreactive insulin, like inulin, quickly equilibrates with interstitial fluid, as evidenced by recovery in thoracic duct lymph in man. Insulin-like activity not accounted for by immunoreactive insulin behaves as a large protein and is confined to the vascular compartment.

Visualisation of the thoracic duct after popliteal lymph node injection in the pig: comparison of radiographic and thoracoscopic techniques
Radiographic contrast studies have been recommended to identify the thoracic duct (TD) and its branches before and after surgery for total occlusion. The macroscopic identification of the TD and its branches during surgery usually involves injection of methylene blue (MB). Radiographic contrast and methylene blue can be injected into different anatomical structures (lymph node, lymph vessel, s....
متن کاملThe characteristics of thoracic duct lymph in man.
The thoracic duct is generally accepted as the major pathway of lymphocytes enroute to the circulating blood (1, 2, 3), accounting for approximately 70 per cent of all the lymphocytes in the peripheral blood. The remainder of the lymphocytes are said to enter the blood directly via the lymph from other sites (2). Reliable information concerning the hematologic content of lymph in the thoracic d...
متن کاملInsulin transport across capillaries is rate limiting for insulin action in dogs.
This study examined the relationship between transcapillary insulin transport and insulin action in vivo. During euglycemic clamps (n = 7) in normal conscious dogs we simultaneously measured plasma and thoracic duct lymph insulin and glucose utilization (Rd). Clamps consisted of an activation phase with constant insulin infusion (0.6 mU/kg per min) and a deactivation phase. [14C]Inulin was infu...
متن کاملRedistribution of regional lymph to the thoracic duct in rats during heat stress.
The protein concentration of the thoracic duct lymph and the amount of protein transported by the thoracic duct decreased during an acute heat stress in rats. The changes in regional lymph flow into the thoracic duct were calculated and the ratio of the lymph from the skin increased 13% and that from the visceral organs decreased 6% during heat stress.
متن کاملA Method for the Observation of the Primo Vascular System in the Thoracic Duct of a Rat
Even though the primo vascular system (PVS) has been observed in large caliber lymph vessels by several independent teams, the presence of the PVS in the thoracic duct has been reported by only one team, probably because reproducing the experiment is technically difficult. This brief report presents a new, relatively straightforward method, which is a simple modification of the previous method ...
