The microvasculature of the lingual mucosa of the goat was studied by SEM using microvascular corrosion casts. A complex microcirculatory system was observed to supply the large number of papillae, which had a wide structural variety. Generally, the organization of the vascular network in the lingual papillae was found to be influenced by the nature of the microcirculation in the lamina propria. Another characteristic feature noted was the presence of numerous valves in the venules situated in the lamina propria. They were oriented toward the broader side of the venules and probably control the rapid outflow of blood. This in turn most probably leads to an increased mucosal blood supply, which might sustain both mechanical and gustatory functions.
利用微血管铸型扫描电子显微镜对山羊舌黏膜的微血管系统进行了研究。观察到一个复杂的微循环系统为大量结构多样的乳头提供血液供应。一般来说，舌乳头内血管网络的组织结构受固有层微循环性质的影响。另一个值得注意的特征是固有层内小静脉中存在大量瓣膜。它们朝向小静脉较宽的一侧，可能控制血液的快速流出。这反过来很可能导致黏膜血液供应增加，从而维持机械和味觉功能。
