In cirrhosis, hepatic venous pressure gradient is used to measure portal venous and sinusoidal pressures, as well as drug-induced decreases of elevated pressures. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of hepatic arterial flow (HAF) changes on portal venous perfusion (PVPP) and wedged hepatic venous pressure (WHVP). Normal and CCl4-cirrhotic rats were subjected to a bivascular liver perfusion with continuous measurements of PVPP, WHVP, and hepatic arterial perfusion pressure. Flow-pressure curves were performed with the use of different flows either through the portal vein (PVF: 20-32 ml/min) or HAF (5-15 ml/min). Increases in HAF lead to significant absolute and relative increases in PVPP (P = 0.002) and WHVP (P < 0.001). Absolute changes in HAF correlated to absolute changes in PVPP (cirrhosis: r = 0.64, P < 0.001; control: r = 0.67, P < 0.001) and WHVP (cirrhosis: r = 0.71, P < 0.001; control: r = 0.82, P < 0.001). Changes in PVPP correlated to changes in WHVP due to changes in PVF only in cirrhosis (r = 0.75, P < 0.001), whereas changes in HAF correlated in both cirrhosis (r = 0.92, P < 0.001) and control (r = 0.77, P < 0.001). In conclusion, increases and decreases in HAF lead to respective changes in PVPP and WHVP. This suggests a direct influence of HAF on PVPP and WHVP most likely due to changes in sinusoidal perfusion. 相似文献

The hepatic arterial buffer response (HABR) tends to maintain liver blood flow under conditions of low mesenteric perfusion. We hypothesized that systemic hypoperfusion impairs the HABR. In 12 pigs, aortic blood flow was reduced by cardiac tamponade to 50 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) for 1 h (short-term tamponade) and further to 30 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) for another hour (prolonged tamponade). Twelve pigs without tamponade served as controls. Portal venous blood flow decreased from 17 +/- 3 (baseline) to 6 +/- 4 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.012) and did not change in controls, whereas hepatic arterial blood flow decreased from 2 +/- 1 (baseline) to 1 +/- 1 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.050) and increased from 2 +/- 1 to 4 +/- 2 ml. kg(-1). min(-1) in controls (P = 0.002). The change in hepatic arterial conductance (DeltaC(ha)) during acute portal vein occlusion decreased from 0.1 +/- 0.05 (baseline) to 0 +/- 0.01 ml. kg(-1). min(-1). mmHg(-1) (prolonged tamponade; P = 0.043). In controls, DeltaC(ha) did not change. Hepatic lactate extraction decreased, but hepatic release of glutathione S-transferase A did not change during cardiac tamponade. In conclusion, during low systemic perfusion, the HABR is exhausted and hepatic function is impaired without signs of cellular damage. 相似文献

Insufficient cardiac preload and impaired contractility are frequent in early sepsis. We explored the effects of acute cardiac preload reduction and dobutamine on hepatic arterial (Qha) and portal venous (Qpv) blood flows during endotoxin infusion. We hypothesized that the hepatic arterial buffer response (HABR) is absent during preload reduction and reduced by dobutamine. In anesthetized pigs, endotoxin or vehicle (n = 12, each) was randomly infused for 18 h. HABR was tested sequentially by constricting superior mesenteric artery (SMA) or inferior vena cava (IVC). Afterward, dobutamine at 2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 μg/kg per minute or another vehicle (n = 6, each) was randomly administered in endotoxemic and control animals, and SMA was constricted during each dose. Systemic (cardiac output, thermodilution) and carotid, splanchnic, and renal blood flows (ultrasound Doppler) and blood pressures were measured before and during administration of each dobutamine dose. HABR was expressed as hepatic arterial pressure/flow ratio. Compared with controls, 18 h of endotoxin infusion was associated with decreased mean arterial blood pressure [49 ± 11 mmHg vs. 58 ± 8 mmHg (mean ± SD); P = 0.034], decreased renal blood flow, metabolic acidosis, and impaired HABR during SMA constriction [0.32 (0.18-1.32) mmHg/ml vs. 0.22 (0.08-0.60) mmHg/ml; P = 0.043]. IVC constriction resulted in decreased Qpv in both groups; whereas Qha remained unchanged in controls, it decreased after 18 h of endotoxemia (P = 0.031; constriction-time-group interaction). One control and four endotoxemic animals died during the subsequent 6 h. The maximal increase of cardiac output during dobutamine infusion was 47% (22-134%) in controls vs. 53% (37-85%) in endotoxemic animals. The maximal Qpv increase was significant only in controls [24% (12-47%) of baseline (P = 0.043) vs. 17% (-7-32%) in endotoxemia (P = 0.109)]. Dobutamine influenced neither Qha nor HABR. Our data suggest that acute cardiac preload reduction is associated with preferential hepatic arterial perfusion initially but not after established endotoxemia. Dobutamine had no effect on the HABR. 相似文献

Hepatic blood supply is uniquely regulated by the hepatic arterial buffer response (HABR), counteracting alterations of portal venous blood flow by flow changes of the hepatic artery. Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) has been recognized as a novel signaling molecule with vasoactive properties. However, the contribution of H(2)S in mediating the HABR is not yet studied. In pentobarbital-anesthetized and laparotomized rats, flow probes around the portal vein and hepatic artery allowed for assessment of the portal venous (PVBF) and hepatic arterial blood flow (HABF) under baseline conditions and stepwise reduction of PVBF for induction of HABR. Animals received either the H(2)S donor Na(2)S, DL-propargylglycine as inhibitor of the H(2)S synthesizing enzyme cystathionine-gamma-lyase (CSE), or saline alone. Additionally, animals were treated with Na(2)S and the ATP-sensitive potassium channel (K(ATP)) inhibitor glibenclamide or with glibenclamide alone. Na(2)S markedly increased the buffer capacity to 27.4 +/- 3.0% (P < 0.05 vs. controls: 15.5 +/- 1.7%), whereas blockade of H(2)S formation by DL-propargylglycine significantly reduced the buffer capacity (8.5 +/- 1.4%). Glibenclamide completely reversed the H(2)S-induced increase of buffer capacity to the control level. By means of RT-PCR, Western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry, we observed the expression of both H(2)S synthesizing enzymes (CSE and cystathionine-beta-synthase) in aorta, vena cava, hepatic artery, and portal vein, as well as in hepatic parenchymal tissue. Terminal branches of the hepatic afferent vessels expressed only CSE. We show for the first time that CSE-derived H(2)S contributes to HABR and partly mediates vasorelaxation of the hepatic artery via activation of K(ATP) channels. 相似文献

The serum concentration of circulating somatomedins was measured in the blood of healthy donors and subjects with hepatic cirrhosis, and in culture media from in vitro explants of healthy and cirrhotic human liver. Serum levels of somatomedin bioactivity were significantly lower in cirrhotic subjects (0.42 +/- 0.03 U/ml; M +/- SEM) compared with age matched controls (0.99 +/- 0.03 U/ml). Radioreceptor assay of somatomedin concentrations confirmed this reduction in cirrhotic patients (0.89 +/- 0.06 U/ml) compared with controls (1.32 +/- 0.05 U/ml). A parallel reduction in somatomedin circulating binding ability was also observed (99.43 +/- 7.28% in cirrhotic and 123.5% +/- 10.8% in normal subjects). In vitro explants from normal human liver tissue produced a significant increase (0.57 +/- 0.09 U/ml) in somatomedin bioactivity contained in the medium (0.29 +/- 0.06 U/ml), while a decreased bioactivity (0.12 +/- 0.06 U/ml) was observed with explants of cirrhotic livers. These results support a role of liver in the biosynthesis of both somatomedin and somatomedin binding protein. 相似文献

The effect of angiotensin II (AII) on systemic and regional haemodynamics was studied in 18 control and 18 cirrhotic, non-ascitic conscious rats (CCl4/phenobarbital model). Cirrhotic rats were found to retain sodium and to have normal plasma renin and plasma aldosterone concentrations when compared with control animals. Cirrhotic rats showed an enhanced cardiac output (34.4 +/- 0.5 vs. 27.5 +/- 2.0 ml/min in controls) and decreased peripheral resistances (2.96 +/- 0.25 vs. 3.95 +/- 0.31 mm Hg/min/100 g/ml in controls) under basal conditions. When AII was administered cardiac output decreased by 10.7 +/- 1.2% in cirrhotic rats, whereas it increased in control animals (11.2 +/- 2%, p less than 0.005). The AII-induced increase in arterial pressure was lower in cirrhotic than in control rats. The renal blood supply was particularly impaired by AII in cirrhotics, with a maintained flow to other organs (muscle, testes). It is concluded that the response to AII is disturbed in rats with hepatic cirrhosis even in a stage without ascites and with plasma renin and aldosterone concentrations similar to those of control animals. 相似文献

The liver blood flow has been extensively studied in hemorrhagic shock, but considerable disagreement exists as to the nature of hemodynamic changes and their controlling mechanism. The present investigation was undertaken in order to determine the effects of hemorrhage and phenoxybenzamine (PBZ) on the participation of hepatic artery (HAF) and portal vein flow (PVF) in total liver blood flow (LBF) changes. The dynamics of LBF (H2 washout method), HAF and PVF (electromagnetic flowmeter) during 3-hours posthemorrhagic hypotension (90 min. = 50-60 mmHg; 90 min. = 25-30 mmHg) and one-hour postretransfusion period were investigated on 20 mongrel dogs under chloralose anesthesia. All animals were divided into 2 groups (control and PBZ-treated--5 mg/kg b.w. 30 minutes following first bleeding). Half an hour following bleeding there occurred a significant decrease of LBF (P less than 0.001) in dogs of both experimental groups. This degree of decrease was due to equal decrease in the PVF and HAF. The infusion of PBZ caused a slight tendency towards increase of LBF, while the subsequent decrease in blood flow values during second hypotensive period in the treated dogs was not so pronounced as in the untreated dogs. Although retransfusion led to an increase of LBF, HAF and PVF in both groups, the restauration was significantly better in PBZ-treated animals. The degree of metabolic acidosis was more pronounced in the untreated dogs than in PBZ-treated. 相似文献

1. Thermal Pulse Decay (TPD) methodology was used to monitor hepatic tissue blood flow (hepatic perfusion) in anesthetized birds prior to and during hemorrhagic hypotension. 2. Hemorrhage was accomplished by periodic removal of blood through a carotid cannula. Reducing the estimated blood volume (BV) from 100 to less than 50% decreased hepatic perfusion from 4.36 +/- 0.7 to 1.88 +/- 0.7 ml/min/g. 3. Changes in hepatic perfusion during the experiment were related to mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) by the following linear regression equation: hepatic perfusion = -1.79 +/- 0.0807x (r2 = 0.57). 相似文献

Blood flow to the placenta and lower body of control and growth retarded (IUGR) guinea pig fetuses was measured between 60-64 days of pregnancy by the microsphere technique. Further information about the hepatic blood supply and its interlobular distribution was obtained by injecting microspheres into the umbilical vein and a branch of the portal vein. Liver weight was reduced by 60% in IUGR fetuses from 5.0 +/- 0.2 to 2.0 +/- 0.1 g, compared to a decrease in body weight of 50% from 91.6 +/- 3.0 to 45.4 +/- 2.6 g. In addition, there was a proportionately greater reduction in the size of the right liver lobe. Umbilical blood flow was 10.8 +/- 1.0 ml min-1 in control fetuses and 4.9 +/- 1.2 ml.min-1 in IUGR fetuses, whilst blood flow in the portal vein was reduced from 1.4 +/- 0.1 to 0.8 +/- 0.3 ml min-1 and that in the hepatic artery from 0.6 +/- 0.1 to 0.3 +/- 0.1 ml.min-1. Since ductus venosus flow was absent or negligible, the umbilical venous return accounted for greater than 80% of the hepatic blood supply in both control and IUGR fetuses. Blood flows were, however, unequally distributed between the liver lobes. The right lobe was supplied mainly by the portal vein in IUGR fetuses as well as the controls, and received less than 6% of the umbilical venous return. No significant change occurred in total liver perfusion, which was 2.8 +/- 0.2 ml min-1 per g in control fetuses and 2.6 +/- 0.4 ml min-1 per g in IUGR fetuses. It is therefore suggested that a high rate of liver metabolism is maintained in IUGR, but by a smaller tissue mass, and that the rate of umbilical blood flow may be one factor determining the size of the liver. The relatively greater reduction in size of the right lobe in IUGR is probably the result of poor oxygenation of the portal venous blood. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine if the renal circulation of normal and cirrhotic dogs behave similarly in response to an acute endotoxin infusion. Endotoxin was administered as a slow continuous infusion (13-26 micrograms/min) to a total of 20 normal dogs through the femoral vein, portal vein, or into the left renal artery. In each case, there was an initial increment in renal blood flow, of the order of 46%, while arterial blood pressure was actually declining. After 8-20 min, blood flow fell as perfusion pressure declined further. The initial increment in renal perfusion was not due to a hyperthermic response following the endotoxin. When similar doses were given to five dogs with chronic biliary cirrhosis and ascites, the biphasic response in renal perfusion was not observed, rather blood flow declined as perfusion pressure declined. When normal dogs were infused with bilirubin, bile salts, noradrenaline, and angiotensin in pressor doses, the subsequent infusion of endotoxin still produced the usual biphasic response in renal perfusion. Chronic elevation of portal pressure (but not acute elevation), volume contraction by diuresis or hemorrhage, and the infusion of bile intravenously, all abolished the biphasic response in renal perfusion and reproduced in normal dogs the response to endotoxin observed in cirrhotic dogs. Investigation of the factors causing the initial decrease in intrarenal vascular resistance in normal dogs following the endotoxin infusion implicated a role for histamine, kinins, and prostaglandins. We conclude there is a fundamental difference in the response of the renal circulation of normal and cirrhotic dogs to an endotoxin infusion, which may depend on failure of this latter group to release one or more humoral agents. This difference may be due to elevated portal pressure, a decreased effective arterial blood volume, or the products of bile having access to the circulation in cirrhotic dogs. 相似文献

Introduction
The compensatory increase in hepatic arterial flow with a decrease in portal venous flow is known as the hepatic arterial buffer response. In cirrhosis with elevated portal pressure, the vascular resistance of the hepatic artery is decreased. Whether this lower resistance of the hepatic artery is a consequence of portal hypertension or not remains unknown.Study Aim
The aim of the study was to investigate the hepatic arterial resistance and response to vasoconstriction in cirrhosis without portal hypertension (normal portal resistance).Methods
Cirrhosis was induced by CCl4-inhalation for 8 weeks (8W, normal portal resistance) and for 12–14 weeks (12W, elevated portal resistance). Bivascular liver perfusion was performed at 8W or 12W and dose response curves of methoxamine were obtained in the presence or absence of LNMMA (nitric oxide synthase blocker). Vascular resistances of the hepatic artery (HAR), portal vein (PVR) and sinusoids (SVR) were measured. Western Blot (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC) were done to measure eNOS and HIF 1a expression.Results
HAR in both groups of cirrhotic animals (8W and 12W) were lower compared to controls. Dose response curves to methoxamine revealed lower HAR in both cirrhotic models (8W and 12W) regardless the magnitude of portal resistance. LNMMA corrected the dose response curves in cirrhosis (8W and 12W) to control. WB and IHC show increased protein expression of eNOS and HIF1a in 8W and 12W.Conclusion
Hepatic arterial resistance is decreased in cirrhosis independent of portal resistance. Vasodilation of the hepatic artery in cirrhosis seems to be influenced by hypoxia rather than increase in portal resistance. Nitric oxide is the main vasodilator. 相似文献12.

We have previously shown that intrasplenic fluid extravasation is important in controlling blood volume. We proposed that, because the splenic vein flows in the portal vein, portal hypertension would increase splenic venous pressure and thus increase intrasplenic microvascular pressure and fluid extravasation. Given that the rat spleen has no capacity to store/release blood, intrasplenic fluid extravasation can be estimated by measuring the difference between splenic arterial inflow and venous outflow. In anesthetized rats, partial ligation of the portal vein rostral to the junction with the splenic vein caused portal venous pressure to rise from 4.5 +/- 0.5 to 12.0 +/- 0.9 mmHg (n = 6); there was no change in portal venous pressure downstream of the ligation, although blood flow in the liver fell. Splenic arterial flow did not change, but the arteriovenous flow differential increased from 0.8 +/- 0.3 to 1.2 +/- 0.1 ml/min (n = 6), and splenic venous hematocrit rose. Mean arterial pressure fell (101 +/- 5.5 to 95 +/- 4 mmHg). Splenic afferent nerve activity increased (5.6 +/- 0.9 to 16.2 +/- 0.7 spikes/s, n = 5). Contrary to our hypothesis, partial ligation of the portal vein caudal to the junction with the splenic vein (same increase in portal venous pressure but no increase in splenic venous pressure) also caused the splenic arteriovenous flow differential to increase (0.6 +/- 0.1 to 1.0 +/- 0.2 ml/min; n = 8). The increase in intrasplenic fluid efflux and the fall in mean arterial pressure after rostral portal vein ligation were abolished by splenic denervation. We propose there to be an intestinal/hepatic/splenic reflex pathway, through which is mediated the changes in intrasplenic extravasation and systemic blood pressure observed during portal hypertension. 相似文献

Cannabinoids have been reported to participate in the pathogenesis of peripheral vasodilatation in cirrhosis. However, their roles in increased intrahepatic resistance (IHR) in cirrhotic livers are unknown. We aimed to investigate the effects of cannabinoids in the hepatic microcirculation of cirrhotic rats produced by bile duct ligation. In isolated liver perfusion, portal perfusion pressure (PPP) and the production of eicosanoids in the perfusate were measured. In addition, various hepatic protein levels [cyclooxygenase (COX) isoform and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX)] were also determined. Finally, concentration-response curves for PPP and the corresponding production of eicosanoids in response to anandamide (1.44 x 10(-10)-1.44 x 10(-3) M) after indomethacin (COX inhibitor), piriprost (5-LOX inhibitor), or furegrelate (thromboxane A(2) synthase inhibitor) preincubation were obtained. The study showed that cirrhotic livers had significantly higher levels of PPP, COX-2 and 5-LOX protein expression, and production of thromboxane B(2) (TXB(2)) and cysteinyl leukotrienes (Cys-LTs) than normal livers. Anandamide induced a dose-dependent increase in PPP in both normal and cirrhotic livers. The anandamide-induced increase in PPP was found concomitantly with a significant increase in TXB(2) and Cys-LT production in the perfusate. In response to anandamide administration, cirrhotic livers exhibited a significantly greater increase in IHR and production of TXB(2) and Cys-LTs than normal livers. Indomethacin and furegrelate, but not piriprost, significantly ameliorated the anandamide-induced increase in IHR in cirrhotic livers. In conclusion, anandamide plays, in part, an important role in increased IHR of cirrhotic livers. The anandamide-induced increase in IHR in cirrhotic livers may be mediated by increased COX-derived eicosanoid (mainly thromboxane A(2)) production. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the role of direct hepatic adrenergic stimulation in the control of endogenous glucose production (R(a)) during moderate exercise in poorly controlled alloxan-diabetic dogs. Chronically catheterized and instrumented (flow probes on hepatic artery and portal vein) dogs were made diabetic by administration of alloxan. Each study consisted of a 120-min equilibration, 30-min basal, 150-min moderate exercise, 30-min recovery, and 30-min blockade test period. Either vehicle (control; n = 6) or alpha (phentolamine)- and beta (propranolol)-adrenergic blockers (HAB; n = 6) were infused in the portal vein. In both groups, epinephrine (Epi) and norepinephrine (NE) were infused in the portal vein during the blockade test period to create suprapharmacological levels at the liver. Isotopic ([3-(3)H]glucose, [U-(14)C]alanine) and arteriovenous difference methods were used to assess hepatic function. Arterial plasma glucose was similar in controls (345 +/- 24 mg/dl) and HAB (336 +/- 23 mg/dl) and was unchanged by exercise. Basal arterial insulin was 5 +/- 1 mU/ml in controls and 4 +/- 1 mU/ml in HAB and fell by approximately 50% during exercise in both groups. Basal arterial glucagon was similar in controls (56 +/- 10 pg/ml) and HAB (55 +/- 7 pg/ml) and rose similarly, by approximately 1.4-fold, with exercise in both groups. Despite greater arterial Epi and NE levels in HAB compared with controls during the basal and exercise periods, exercise-induced increases in catecholamines from basal were similar in both groups. Gluconeogenic conversion from alanine and lactate and the intrahepatic efficiency of this process were increased by twofold during exercise in both groups. R(a) rose similarly by 2.9 +/- 0.7 and 2.7 +/- 1.0 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) at time = 150 min during exercise in controls and HAB. During the blockade test period, arterial plasma glucose and R(a) rose to 454 +/- 43 mg/dl and 11.3 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) in controls, respectively, but were essentially unchanged in HAB. The attenuated response to the blockade test in HAB substantiates the effectiveness of the hepatic adrenergic blockade. In conclusion, these results demonstrate that direct hepatic adrenergic stimulation does not play a role in the stimulation of R(a) during exercise in poorly controlled diabetes. 相似文献

Intrahepatic arteries are richly innervated by both adrenergic and sensory vanilloid-sensitive (capsaicin-sensitive) fibers. Stimulation of capsaicin sensitive fibers has been shown to dilate the intrahepatic vessels by both releasing sensory neuropeptides and by modulating the adrenergic tone. However the participation of capsaicin-sensitive fibers in the mediation of the hepatic artery buffer response (HABR) has not been investigated yet. To explore the involvement of sensory innervation and sensory neuropeptides in the HABR, the experiments were performed on capsaicin-denervated Wistar rats. In addition, we used selective CGRP and tachykinin receptor antagonists to test the participation of CGRP, substance P and NK-A in HABR in the rat. In anesthetized rats the hepatic artery blood flow (HABF), microcirculatory hepatic blood flow (HBF) and portal blood flow (PBF) were determined. The HABR was induced by partial occlusion of the portal vein and maintaining the PBF at 10% of its control preocclusive value. In the control HABR the hepatic artery blood flow increased by 89% (p< 0.005) whilst the HBF at the same time decreased by 32% (p< 0.005) in comparison to preocclusive HABF and HBF values. In sensory-denervated rats the resting HBF and PBF were increased by 23% (p< 0.05) and 34% (p< 0.05), respectively in comparison to the control HBF and PBF values. In this group the induction of the HABR increased the hepatic artery blood flow by only 55% (p< 0.05), whilst the HBF was reduced by 45% (p< 0.05). Pretreatment with CGRP 8-37 (CGRP receptor antagonist) and NK-1 but not NK-2 nor NK-3 receptor antagonists significantly reduced the HABF by 43% (p< 0.05) and 25% (p< 0.05) as compared to the HABF value in the control HABR group. These findings support the hypothesis that the hepatic artery buffer response induced by reduction of the portal inflow to the liver by 90% is partially mediated by activation of capsaicin-sensitive sensory fibers in the liver, probably due to local tissue ischemia and hypoxia. The observed vasodilation in the vascular bed of the hepatic artery is due to stimulation of CGRP and NK-1 receptors. 相似文献

The pathophysiology of alcohol-induced acute pancreatitis is not clear. Ischemic injury has been suggested as a possible mechanism. To examine the effects of ethanol on pancreatic and splanchnic blood flow, measurements were made in fasted, conditioned awake dogs before and after iv infusion of ethanol (1.7 g/kg). At 30 min blood ethanol concentration ranged between 60 and 150 mg/dl and at 60 min between 166 and 350 mg/dl. Although cardiac output, aortic pressure, left atrial pressure, and arterial pH did not change, pancreatic flow declined by 39 +/- 12 ml/min/100 g, P less than 0.05 (from 173 +/- 10 ml/min/100 g) at 30 min and was still depressed (by 27 +/- 12 ml/min/100 g, P less than 0.05) at 60 min. Concomitantly, hepatic arterial flow increased. While hepatic and pancreatic flow changed inversely, the correlation (r = -0.17) of these changes was not significant. At comparable blood ethanol concentrations in pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs hepatic arterial flow increased by 11 +/- 3 ml/min/100 g, P less than 0.01 (from 24 +/- 5 ml/min/100 g), but pancreatic flow did not change. Thus, in the awake dog at blood levels that would produce mild to moderate alcoholic intoxication in man, ethanol reduces pancreatic flow. Although hepatic flow increases concomitantly, the relationship of these changes appears to be independent. 相似文献

Respiratory muscle blood flow and organ blood flow during endotoxic shock were studied in spontaneously breathing dogs (SB, n = 6) and mechanically ventilated dogs (MV, n = 5) with radiolabeled microspheres. Shock was produced by a 5-min intravenous injection of Escherichia coli endotoxin (0.55:B5, Difco, 10 mg/kg) suspended in saline. Mean arterial blood pressure and cardiac output in the SB group dropped to 59 and 45% of control values, respectively. There was a similar reduction in arterial blood pressure and cardiac output in the MV group. Total respiratory muscle blood flow in the SB group increased significantly from the control value of 51 +/- 4 ml/min (mean +/- SE) to 101 +/- 22 ml/min at 60 min of shock. In the MV group, respiratory muscle perfusion fell from control values of 43 +/- 12 ml/min to 25 +/- 3 ml/min at 60 min of shock. In the SB group, 8.8% of the cardiac output was received by the respiratory muscle during shock in comparison with 1.9% in the MV group. In both groups of dogs, blood flow to most organs was compromised during shock; however, blood flow to the brain, gut, and skeletal muscles was higher in the MV group than in the SB group. Thus by mechanical ventilation a fraction of the cardiac output used by the working respiratory muscles can be made available for perfusion of other organs during endotoxic shock. 相似文献

The effect of surgical end-to-side portacaval anastomosis (PCSA) on systemic and splanchnic circulation has been studied in cirrhotic rats with portal hypertension (CCl4-phenobarbital method) and in control animals. Hemodynamics have been measured using the microsphere technique, with a reference sample for the systemic hemodynamic measurements, and intrasplenic injection for portal systemic shunting rate measurements. Compared with controls, sham-operated (SO) cirrhotic rats showed a hyperdynamic circulation with increased cardiac output (CO) and decreased mean arterial pressure and peripheral resistances. PCSA in control rats induced only a small change in systemic hemodynamics, with parallel decreases in arterial pressure and peripheral resistances, and a small, nonsignificant increase in CO. In cirrhotic rats, PCSA induced a decrease of CO to values similar to those of control rats, with an increase in total peripheral resistances. PCSA induced an increase in hepatic arterial blood flow in control and in cirrhotic rats, portal pressure becoming in this latter group not different from that of control rats. Blood flow to splanchnic organs was higher in SO cirrhotic than in SO control animals. Thus portal venous inflow was also increased in SO cirrhotic rats. PCSA induced an increase in portal venous inflow in control rats, which was only significant in cirrhotic rats when expressed as a percentage of CO. In SO control animals, a significant correlation was observed between total peripheral resistances and splanchnic arteriolar resistances and between CO and splanchnic blood flow. These correlations were not observed in cirrhotic rats. These results do not support the hypothesis that hyperdynamic circulation shown by cirrhotic rats is based on increases in splanchnic blood flow and (or) massive portal systemic shunting. 相似文献

We tested whether seal location at iliac crest (IC) or upper abdomen (UA), before and during lower body negative pressure (LBNP), would affect thoracic electrical impedance, hepatic blood flow, and central cardiovascular responses to LBNP. After 30 min of supine rest, LBNP at -40 mm Hg was applied for 15 min, either at IC or UA, in 14 healthy males. Plasma density and indocyanine green concentrations assessed plasma volume changes and hepatic perfusion. With both sealing types, LBNP-induced effects remained unchanged for mean arterial pressure (-3.0+/-1.1 mm Hg), cardiac output (-1.0 l min(-1)), and plasma volume (-11 %). Heart rate was greater during UA (80.6+/-3.3 bpm) than IC (76.0+/-2.5 bpm) (p<0.01) and thoracic impedance increased more using UA (3.2+/-0.2 Omega) than IC (1.8+/-0.2 Omega) (p<0.0001). Furthermore, during supine rest, UA was accompanied by lower thoracic impedance (26.9+/-1.1 vs 29.0+/-0.8 Omega, p<0.001) and hepatic perfusion (1.6 vs 1.8 l.min(-1), p<0.05) compared to IC. The data suggest that the reduction in central blood volume in response to LBNP depends on location of the applied seal. The sealing in itself altered blood volume distribution and hepatic perfusion in supine resting humans. Finally, application of LBNP with the seal at the upper abdomen induced a markedly larger reduction in central blood volume and greater increases in heart rate than when the seal was located at the iliac crest. 相似文献

We determined the roles of liver and splanchnic vascular bed in anaphylactic hypotension in anesthetized rats and the effects of anaphylaxis on hepatic vascular resistances and liver weight in isolated perfused rat livers. In anesthetized rats sensitized with ovalbumin (1 mg), an intravenous injection of 0.6 mg ovalbumin caused not only a decrease in systemic arterial pressure from 120 +/- 9 to 43 +/- 10 mmHg but also an increase in portal venous pressure that persisted for 20 min after the antigen injection (the portal hypertension phase). The elimination of the splanchnic vascular beds, by the occlusions of the celiac and mesenteric arteries, combined with total hepatectomy attenuated anaphylactic hypotension during the portal hypertension phase. For the isolated perfused rat liver experiment, the livers derived from sensitized rats were hemoperfused via the portal vein at a constant flow. Using the double-occlusion technique to estimate the hepatic sinusoidal pressure, presinusoidal (R(pre)) and postsinusoidal (R(post)) resistances were calculated. An injection of antigen (0.015 mg) caused venoconstriction characterized by an almost selective increase in R(pre) rather than R(post) and liver weight loss. Taken together, these results suggest that liver and splanchnic vascular beds are involved in anaphylactic hypotension presumably because of anaphylactic presinusoidal contraction-induced portal hypertension, which induced splanchnic congestion resulting in a decrease in circulating blood volume and thus systemic arterial hypotension. 相似文献
