[Structural mechanisms of regulation of the lympho-microcirculatory system].

The lymphatic vessels in total macro-microscopical preparations of various human organs and those in some laboratory animals have been injected with silver nitrate solution. There are various morphological structures that are capable to regulate the lymph flow and outflow rate in the microcirculatory lymphatic bed. A peculiar role belongs to the lymphatic postcapillaries (V. V. Kuprianov) that possess valve-sluices. The structural mechanism of the microcirculatory lymphatic bed circulation are in many respects similar to those of the hemomicrocirculatory bed. A model demonstrating a morphofunctional unit in the microcirculatory lymphatic bed is proposed. It is an integrate part of the hemomicrocirculatory bed module.
