2.1.1 Blood flow homogeneity Human blood is not inherently a homogenous substance. Blood is a body fluid composed of numerous kinds of components. Four of the most important components are plasma, red blood cells (RBC/erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets. Plasma is respo...
The blood resistivity rho , the length L of the limb segment to be examined and its tissue volume VO are respectively set, and rho L2 DELTA Y/VO is computated. The initial gradient of the computation result to time is indicative of the blood flow rate in the limb being examined.YAMAKO...
Blood perfusionOxygenation of human tumorsPrognostic significanceModulation of tumor oxygenationThere is a large body of evidence suggesting that blood flow and oxygenation of human tumors are important research topics which may explain, in particular, resistance to radiation to many antineoplastic drugs, ...
Let's look at the second line. There are several processes controlled by this line that we cannot directly see, but only feel. For example, when it’s cold, our blood vessels constrict, slowing blood flow and slowing t...
Part (d) shows that the velocity (speed) of blood flow decreases dramatically as the blood moves from arteries to arterioles to capillaries. This slow flow rate allows more time for exchange processes to occur. As blood flows through the veins, the rate of velocity increases, as blood is re...
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) greatly restricts the entry of biological and engineered therapeutic molecules into the brain. Due to challenges in translating results from animal models to the clinic, relevant in vitro human BBB models are needed to assess pathophysiological molecular transport mechanism...
Red cell lysis solution (eBioscience10X RBC Lysis Buffer (Multi-species)) was used according to the manufacturer’s guidelines to remove red blood cells, and the remaining cells were collected in FACS buffer (1% (v/v) FBS in PBS) by centrifugation at 400g at 4 °C for 5 min. ...

Successful re-invasion was controlled with Giemsa-stained blood smears and flow cytometric measurement as described above. At ring stage, the culture was split into two parts and treated with either 2 mM Darapladib or DMSO control and further inc...
Pathophysiologically, its characteristics include decreased lung volume, decreased lung extensibility and imbalance of the ventilation/blood flow ratio. When ALI develops into the severe stage (oxygenation index < 200), it is called acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Globally, there are ...
