Introduction. The state of the blood flow within the capillaries and close blood vessels is highly important in practice for the revealing of pathogenetic mechanisms of both systemic and local circulatory disorders. Aim of the study was to define the parameters of microcirculation and the level of blood flow fluctuations (flux) in the distal segments of upper and lower limbs (in fingers of hands and toes of feet) in children of 6–7 years old; and to describe the possible differences in the mechanisms of blood flow modulation in boys and girls. Materials and methods. Skin microcirculation was assessed in middle fingers of hands and great toes of feet in children of 6-7 years old (14 girls and 7 boys in prone position) by means of laser doppler flowmetry. Results. The ranges for parameters of microcirculation (PM) for distal segments of upper and lower limbs in children of mentioned age group were defined, also it was shown that the PM are significantly lower in the lower limbs comparing to those of the upper limbs (both in groups of girls and boys). Asymmetry of PM in the feet was not found; the features of right hand-left hand asymmetry for PM in girls and boys are described. The analysis of modulation of blood flow fluctuations (fluxmotions) of different frequencies showed the profound role of vasomotor (myogenic) rhythm for regulation of microcirculation. Conclusion. Increased neurogenic influences on the modulation of fluxmotions in girls of 6-7 years old may be an evidence of the ongoing development of the mechanisms of blood flow regulation, particularly the association with the growth rate of girls is possible.

Vasodilator Response

To determine the contribution of nitric oxide (NO) to the vasodilator response induced by salbutamol in diaphragmatic microcirculation, we studied a diaphragmatic preparation in anesthetized rats. With bicarbonate-buffered Ringer solution continuously suffusing the diaphragm, laser-Doppler flowmetry was used to record microvascular blood flow (QLDF). The drugs were applied to the surface of the diaphragm. Salbutamol (3.2 x 10(-7)-10(-4) M), isoproterenol (3.2 x 10(-8)-3.2 x 10(-6) M), and forskolin (3.2 x 10(-7)-10(-5) M) each elicited a concentration-dependent increase in QLDF. The vasodilator response induced by salbutamol (3.2 x 10(-7), 10(-6), and 3.2 x 10(-6) M) was attenuated by a 15-min suffusion of N omega-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA, 10(-4) M), and pretreatment with L-arginine (10(-2) M) could restore salbutamol-induced vasodilator responses. Salbutamol-induced vasodilation was also abolished by propranolol (10(-5) M). Similarly, the vasodilator response elicited by isoproterenol (3.2 x 10(-8), 10(-7), and 3.2 x 10(-7) M) and forskolin (3.2 x 10(-7), 10(-6), and 3.2 x 10(-6) M) was inhibited by L-NNA (10(-4) M). In contrast, the vasodilator response induced by adenosine (10(-6), 10(-5), and 10(-4) M) was not affected by L-NNA (10(-4) M). These data indicate that in rat diaphragmatic microcirculation salbutamol-induced vasodilation may be partly mediated by beta-adrenoceptors on the endothelium. Moreover, these data suggest that an elevation of cyclic AMP in the endothelium may cause release of NO.

Relevance. Morpho-functional changes in peripheral circulation established in type 1 diabetes mellitus correlate with changes in central hemodynamics, allowing the use of microcirculation indicators as diagnostic and prognostic criteria for assessing the degree of functional vascular disorders. Identifcation of microcirculation features of the blood by the method of laser Doppler flowmetry in children with different experience of type 1 diabetes in key age categories.Materials and methods. The study included 67 children with type 1 diabetes mellitus aged 12-15 years with an experience of the disease from six months to ten years. The comparison group consisted of 38 healthy children. The state of the microvasculature was assessed by laser Doppler flowmetry using a laser analyzer for capillary blood flow LAKK-OP.Results. In children with an experience of type 1 diabetes of less than two years, microcirculation disorders in periodontal tissues correspond to the hyperemic form, accompanied by increased perfusion, a decrease in the amplitude of low-frequency oscillations, increased heart rate, high blood flling, and blood flow bypass. For children with an endocrinopathy experience of more than three years, microcirculation disorders correspond to a stagnant form, combined with a decrease in perfusion due to stagnation of blood in the venular link, endothelial domination with suppression of neurogenic and cardiac fluctuations, low efciency and redistribution of blood flow in favor of the nutritive link.Conclusions. With the increase in experience, the degree of compensation of type 1 diabetes, the progression of diabetic microangiopathy, it is advisable to designate two stages of development of microcirculatory disorders. Early – compensatory with active adaptation, including neurogenic and endothelial regulation mechanisms. Late – decompensation with passive adaptation, supporting the effectiveness of microcirculation due to myogenic control of regulation, shunting and increasing the rate of blood outflow.

The effects of angiotensin II (ANG II) or angiotensin III (ANG III) on renal cortical blood flow (CBF) or papillary blood flow (PBF) were investigated in Inactin-anesthetized young rats with the use of laser-Doppler flowmetry. Infusion of equimolar pressor doses of ANG II (300 ng.kg-1.min-1 iv) or ANG III (267 ng.kg-1.min-1) decreased CBF by 31 +/- 2.6% (P less than 0.001) and 20.3 +/- 3.2% (P less than 0.01), respectively but increased PBF by 19 +/- 6.1% (P less than 0.05) and 14.6 +/- 4.4% (P less than 0.05). The ANG II-induced increase in PBF was not prevented by aortic clamping to maintain constant renal perfusion pressure or pretreatment with the prostaglandin synthase inhibitor, indomethacin. The nonpeptide ANG II receptor antagonist, DuP 753 completely abolished the systemic and intrarenal effects of ANG II. After pretreatment with a kallikrein inhibitor, aprotinin, ANG II infusion increased mean arterial pressure but did not affect PBF, suggesting that kinins, but not prostaglandins, modulate the action of systemic ANG II on PBF. We conclude that circulating ANG II induces vasoconstriction in the cortex and also promotes the intrarenal production of kinins, which act to enhance papillary blood flow.
