[Dynamics of lymph node function in disordered innervation].

A mechanotron 6MX1C was used to study lymphodynamic indices of the dog popliteal lymph nodes after cutting the ischiatic and femoral nerves in the left limb at 1 week, 3 and 5 months. The lymph nodes of the contralateral limb and the lymph nodes from intact dogs were used as controls. It has been demonstrated that denervation causes acceleration of the periods of the filling and emptying of the lymph nodes both in the denervated and contralateral limbs as compared with the initial period. The amplitude of fluctuations under maximal filling of the lymph nodes decreases significantly at the long-term postoperative periods. The lymphodynamic changes seem to be determined by pathomorphological alterations in lymph node tissues.

[Lymph pressure dynamics in somatic and mesenteric lymphatic channels at rest and at the height of digestion].

An original rapidly acting tensoresistive pressure transducer was used to study the lymph pressure in the popliteal and mesenteric lymph nodes and vessels of the dog without liquid injection into the lymph channels. The characteristics of the lymph flow in the drained organs was compared at a relative rest, while for the mesenteric lymph channels at the height of digestion. During digestion the lymph pressure in the vessels and nodes is 2-3 times higher than on an empty stomach, and the waves of tonic activity occur more frequently and energetically. The lymph pressure in the lymph nodes is lower than in the efferent vessels of these nodes.
