Resistance and capacitance functions of veins in the gastrocnemius muscle during electrical stimulation of ventral subdivisions of medulla oblongata

Perfusion of blood vessels in the gastrocnemius muscle with autoblood under local electrostimulation of pressure zones of ventral part of the medulla oblongata revealed increments in resistance to blood flow in the muscle veins and arteries, which were respectively, 83 and 81% of the constrictor rea...

Description
Summary:Perfusion of blood vessels in the gastrocnemius muscle with autoblood under local electrostimulation of pressure zones of ventral part of the medulla oblongata revealed increments in resistance to blood flow in the muscle veins and arteries, which were respectively, 83 and 81% of the constrictor reactions of these vessels in response to a supramaximum electrostimulation of the sympathetic chains, while decrease in the venous blood filling was 33%. In response to electrostimulation of VMO depressor zones, the venous blood filling did not increase, while in the muscle arteries and veins the resistance to blood flow decreased by 60 and 130% in comparison with the dilator reactions of these vessels after dissection of sciatic nerve in the muscle preparation. Both quantitative and qualitative aspects of resistance and capacitance function of venous and resistive arterial vessels are shown to depend on individual features in the regulation of veins and arteries at the central and peripheral level.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
