Physiology: Lymph Flow

2017
The lymphatic system is an elaborate network of vessels that act harmoniously to pump fluid and cells, collectively called lymph, from the interstitial space into the blood circulation. The journey of lymph begins with the extravasation of fluid and cells from the blood capillaries into the interstitium. These are then taken up by the initial lymphatic

Cerebral blood flow and vascular physiology

Anesthesiology Clinics of North America, 2002
The cerebral circulation is tightly regulated to meet the brain's metabolic demands. Although the mechanism is not fully understood, the major physiologic influences on cerebral blood flow have been well documented. In this chapter the basic vascular anatomy, and physiologic control of the cerebral circulation are reviewed.

Coral physiology: Going with the ciliary flow

Current Biology, 2022
Corals have long been known to generate local fluid flows using ciliary beating, but the importance of these ciliary flows is just being discovered. Two new papers shed light on how ciliary-flow physics plays a key role in shaping coral physiology.

Transmural Flow During Physiological Vasodilation

1984
It is well established that coronary blood flow is influenced by 1) metabolic activity of the myocardium and 2) by mechanical forces generated by contracting cardiac muscle. Of course, these factors are interrelated. Usually they are positively correlated with increases in cardiac function associated with increases in myocardial metabolism and with ...
