THE GRADIENT OF VASCULAR PERMEABILITY : II. THE CONDITIONS IN FROG AND CHICKEN MUSCLE, AND IN THE MAMMALIAN DIAPHRAGM



Frederick Smith M.B., B.Ch.1 and Peyton Rous M.D.1

1 From the Laboratories of The Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research

A mounting gradient of permeability exists along the capillaries of frog muscle. In chicken muscle on the other hand none has been demonstrated; but the close-knit vascularization is arranged in duplicate in such manner that the blood runs in opposite directions through the capillaries of nearly adjacent fibres. In a flight muscle of the pigeon there exists in addition to this artifice what appears to be a special collecting system of venous capillaries. In the mammalian diaphragm indications of such a system are also to be found, and a gradient of capillary permeability like that in the other skeletal muscles is probably present.

These vascular conditions are briefly considered in terms of function.
