To begin to characterize the pulmonary arterial transport function we rapidly injected a bolus containing a radiopaque dye and a fluorescence dye into the right atrium of anesthetized dogs. The concentrations of the dye indicators were measured in the main pulmonary artery (fluoroscopically) and in a subpleural pulmonary arteriole (by fluorescence microscopy). The resulting concentration vs. time curves were subjected to numerical deconvolution and moment analysis to determine how the bolus was dispersed as it traveled through the arteriole stream tube from the main pulmonary artery to the arteriole. The mean transit time and standard deviation of the transport function from the main pulmonary artery to the arterioles studied averaged 1.94 and 1.23 s, respectively, and the relative dispersion (ratio of standard deviation to mean transit time) was approximately 64%. This relative dispersion is at least as large as those reported for the whole dog lung, indicating that relative to their respective mean transit times the dispersion upstream from the arterioles is comparable to that taking place in capillaries and/or veins. The standard deviations of the transport functions were proportional to their mean transit times. Thus the relative dispersion from the main pulmonary artery to the various arterioles studied was fairly consistent. However, there were variations in mean transit time even between closely adjacent arterioles, suggesting that variations in mean transit times between arteriole stream tubes also contribute to the dispersion in the pulmonary arterial tree. 相似文献

Blue dextran (BD), which binds to proteins on the pulmonary endothelial surface and to plasma albumin, was used in isolated perfused dog lung lobe experiments to address the question: do changes in perfusate flow rate cause changes in perfused vascular surface area? When BD was added to a protein-free perfusate under zone 3 conditions at a high flow rate (15.8 +/- 0.7 ml/s), it was adsorbed by the endothelial surface. Then by changing the perfusate entering the lobe to an albumin-containing perfusate, the BD was eluted from the perfused surface by competitive binding to the perfusate albumin. The amount of BD eluted was measured in three experiments. In experiment 1, elution of the BD by the perfusate albumin was initiated after a balloon had been inflated within the lobar arterial tree to occlude a portion of the lobar vascular bed containing BD. Then the balloon was deflated, permitting albumin perfusate to perfuse the previously occluded part of the lobe. In experiment 2, BD elution began at a flow rate of 3 +/- 0.1 ml/s under zone 3 conditions and continued after the high-flow zone 3 conditions were reestablished. In experiment 3, the BD elution began at a flow rate of 4.2 +/- 0.7 ml/s under zone 2 conditions and continued after the high-flow zone 3 conditions were reestablished. Balloon inflation reduced the amount of BD recovered by 43%, demonstrating that a decrease in perfused vascular surface area could decrease BD recovery.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The kinetics of the pulmonary endothelial uptake of serotonin (5-HT) were evaluated in isolated dog lung lobes using three methods. In method A serotonin was infused at various constant rates to provide a range of capillary concentrations that included Km. The arterial and venous concentrations measured by high-performance liquid chromatography were then used to determine the effect of concentration on the rate of 5-HT uptake. In method B trace doses of 5-[3H]HT and a reference indicator (indocyanine green dye) were injected during each constant infusion of unlabeled 5-HT to provide a measure of unidirectional 5-HT uptake at each background concentration. In method C boluses containing different amounts of unlabeled 5-HT, along with the 5-[3H]HT and the dye, were injected such that each bolus resulted in a range of concentrations and provided a measure of the unidirectional uptake at each concentration. Each method provided the data needed to calculate the maximum uptake rate (Vmax) and the concentration at Vmax/2 (Km), assuming that the uptake kinetics can be represented by the Michaelis-Menten equation. However, the mathematical model underlying each method involved different assumptions about the returning flux of the 5-HT which entered the endothelial cell and the heterogeneity of vascular transit times. The results obtained, considered in light of the different assumptions involved, indicate that all three methods can provide reasonable estimates of the mass transfer kinetic constants if the constant infusions of 5-HT are of short duration and/or the boluses are adequately dispersed prior to reaching the capillary bed. 相似文献
