Abstract We applied the radioactive microsphere method to follow the magnitude and time course (0 to 96 hours) of blood flow changes during development and recovery from anemia in awake rats. Blood flow was also monitored during a 96-hour period after polycythemia was induced (erythropoietin administered subcutaneously [SC]). The possible influence of innervation was also examined. After a blood loss of approximately 50% (hypovolemia), blood flow to the femoral marrow tripled within 12 hours and remained elevated for the entire 96-hour period. The relative increase in blood flow to the femoral bone was even greater. Similar findings were obtained in rats with phenylhydrazine (PHZ) hemolytic anemia (normovolemia). Denervation had no detectable effect on the increased blood flow to either marrow or bone. The augmented blood flow during hemolytic anemia was accompanied by a doubling of the oxygen consumption rate by the marrow, while the glucose uptake was not detectably altered. Erythropoietin supplements (3 x 1,000 IU/kg, SC, 6-hour intervals) increased blood flow to the marrow by approximately 25% after 48 hours, and at 72 hours the blood flow had reached a value twice that obtained under control conditions. These results indicate that blood flow to bone marrow is highly variable and hormonally and/or locally regulated. This may have practical consequences for marrow transplantation technology and for administration of drug therapy to patients with insufficient bone marrow hematopoiesis.

Systemic and regional hemodynamic changes were measured in restrained, conscious rhesus monkeys with indwelling arterial and venous catheters before and after clonidine (5 and 15 mug/kg) was slowly infused intravenously or smaller doses (2 mug/kg) were injected into a lateral cerebral ventricle. Dye-dilution cardiac outputs and the complete distribution of cardiac output were obtained intermittently with the use of the radioactive microsphere method. After the higher intravenous dose and the intraventricular injection, systemic arterial pressure was significantly lowered for 30-45 min. Both of these groups had similar changes in the redistribution of cardiac output and blood flow that outlasted the hypotensive period. Blood flow was maintained or increased in the hepatic and renal arteries at the expense of skin; flow to skeletal muscle and brain also decreased during the first hour. These data support previous studies that indicate that the primary action of clonidine is in the central nervous system and, in addition, add new information about the regional blood flow changes evoked by clonidine.

This study characterized the time course of changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and vascular diameter in a dual-hemorrhage model of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in rats and examined whether acute blockade of the synthesis of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) with N-(3-chloro-4-morpholin-4-yl)phenyl- N′-hydroxyimido formamide (TS-011) can reverse delayed vasospasm in this model. Rats received an intracisternal injection of blood (0.4 ml) on day 0 and a second injection 2 days later. CBF was sequentially measured using laser-Doppler flowmetry, and the diameters of the cerebral arteries were determined after filling the cerebral vasculature with a casting compound. CBF fell to 67% of control after the first intracisternal injection of blood but returned to a value near control 24 h later. CBF again fell to 63% of control after a second intracisternal injection of blood and remained 30% below control for 5 days. The fall in CBF after the second intracisternal injection of blood was associated with a sustained 30% reduction in the diameters of the middle cerebral, posterior communicating, and basilar arteries. Acute blockade of the synthesis of 20-HETE with TS-011 (0.1 mg/kg iv), 5 days after the second SAH, increased the diameters of the cerebral arteries, and CBF returned to control. These results indicate that the rats develop delayed vasospasm after induction of the dual-hemorrhage model of SAH and that blockade of the synthesis of 20-HETE fully reverses cerebral vasospasm in this model. They also implicate 20-HETE in the development and maintenance of delayed cerebral vasospasm.

Increased Blood Flow

1. Increase in circulatory rate caused by hard exercise has no power to dislocate nucleated red cells from the bone marrow either in normal, in anemic, in hyperplastic, or in anemic and hyperplastic animals. 2. In anemic and hyperplastic animals pseudocrises of nucleated red cells can be produced at certain periods by hard exercise, but careful analysis leads inevitably to the conclusion that the increase in these cells is merely a more accurate expression of circulatory content at the time of the procedure. 3. Section of the vasomotor nerves to the four limbs with consequent dilatation of the marrow vessels and increased blood flow through the tissue does not result in the freeing of nucleated red cells from the bone marrow.

Clearance Technique

Total gastric blood flow in the dog as estimated by the K42 clearance technique agreed within 5% with measured total venous outflow. Extraction of the isotope by the stomach was found to be such that 30–60 sec following injection the organ contained a fraction of the injected dose that was the same as the fraction of the cardiac output that perfused the organ. By comparison with the radioactive microsphere method, the K42 clearance technique was also found to be reasonably accurate for determination of the distribution of the total flow within the organ. Mean total gastric blood flow in intact dogs, unoperated upon except for femoral arterial and venous catheterization, was 49 ml/min per organ or 0.54 ml/min per gram. This was distributed 80% to corpus and 20% to antrum. The corpus flow was partitioned among the mural tissues: mucosa 72%, submucosa 13%, and muscle serosa 15%.

Increased Blood Flow

The surgical technique of isolation of the blood supply of the gracilis muscle of the dog has been developed for analysis of the oxygen consumption during reactive hyperemia. The time course of the blood flow, A-V oxygen difference and the oxygen consumption follow the same pattern. Immediately after the release of the arterial occlusion, there is an increase in all three values which decay and go below the control level that existed just prior to the occlusion. The increased oxygen consumption during reactive hyperemia is possible primarily by the increased blood flow, although the A-V oxygen difference is increased also. A theoretical oxygen deficit is overpaid by the oxygen consumption during the period of increased blood flow but essentially repaid if the period of decreased blood flow is included.

Endothelium Derived Relaxing Factor

The role of endogenous endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) in splanchnic blood flow was assessed in normal and portal vein-stenosed rats (PSRs). Specific and maximal inhibition of EDRF was achieved by intravenous administration of NG-nitro-L-arginine (L-NOARG) as a 1.75 mumol/kg bolus, followed by constant infusion of 1.75 mumol/kg for 20 min. Pretreatment with L-arginine (175 mumol/kg iv) completely blocked both hypertension and the reduction in blood flow induced by L-NOARG. Pretreatment with D-arginine (175 mumol/kg iv) and prazosin (500 micrograms/kg iv) did not attenuate the pressor effect of L-NOARG. These results indicate that L-NOARG selectively blocks EDRF. The blood flow to the stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, and colon in control rats was 81.1 +/- 8.7, 199.1 +/- 21.9, 153.3 +/- 20.0, 68.6 +/- 10.6, 79.4 +/- 11.8, and 59.3 +/- 7.8 ml.min-1.100 g-1, respectively, and in PSRs was 141.4 +/- 10.8, 244.0 +/- 10.4, 208.3 +/- 9.8, 126.8 +/- 13.0, 166.9 +/- 16.5, and 94.8 +/- 4.7 ml.min-1.100 g-1, respectively. Blood flow was measured using the radioactive microsphere method. L-NOARG significantly reduced blood flow to the stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, and colon in control rats by 47, 44, 48, 55, 40, and 41%, respectively, and in PSRs by 30, 27, 36, 33, 28, and 23%, respectively. The magnitude of blood flow reduction in PSRs was lower than in normal rats. These results indicate that EDRF plays an important role in control of the splanchnic circulation, but its effect on the hyperdynamic circulation observed in PSRs is insignificant.
