20 Blood Vessels

I. Types of Blood Vessels
Heart to ► A. Arteries - carry blood away from the heart ► B. Arterioles - the smallest arteries ► C. Capillaries - the smallest blood vessels (exchange occurs here) ► D. Venules - receive blood from capillaries ► E. Veins - receive blood from venules ► ► to Heart

II. Structure of Blood Vessels (3 layers)
A. Lumen – space that blood flows through B. Tunica intima - innermost tunic 1. lines all blood vessels (arteries, veins, etc.) 2. simple squamous epithelium = endothelium C. Tunica media - sheets of smooth muscle and elastin 1. sympathetics control vasoconstriction and vasodilation = B.P. D. Tunica externa 1. Collagen fibers protect and reinforce 2. Contains nerve fibers and lymphatic vessels 3. Vasa vasorum of larger vessels nourishes external layer

III. Types of Arteries A. Elastic Arteries
1. thick-walled arteries with elastin in all three layers 2. large lumen offers least resistance = easier blood flow 3. act as pressure reservoirs = expand and recoil as blood leaves heart 4. aorta and its major branches B. Muscular Arteries 1. distal to elastic arteries = delivers blood to the body organs 2. thick tunica media with more smooth muscle 3. active in vasoconstriction C. Arterioles 1. smallest arteries that lead to the capillary beds 2. control direction of blood flow via vasoconstriction

IV. Capillaries A. General Structure
1. microscopic blood vessel = one blood cell in diameter! 2. very thin tunica intima = easy permeability to fluid and molecules 3. pericytes help stabilize the walls and help control permeability B. Major Function 1. exchange of gases, nutrients, waste compounds, hormones, etc.

Red blood cells passing through a capillary (512).
10
C. Continuous Capillaries
1. most common type of capillary 2. occur in most organs (especially skin and muscle) 3. tight junctions and desmosomes join epithelial cells 4. Intercellular clefts = limited passage of fluids and small solutes a. blood-brain barrier – only certain molecules can pass
11
Pericyte Red blood cell in lumen Intercellular cleft Endothelial cell Endothelial nucleus Basement membrane Pinocytotic vesicles Tight junction Continuous capillary. Least permeable, and most common (e.g., skin, muscle).
12
D. Fenestrated Capillaries
1. some endothelial cells contain pores (fenestrations) 2. more permeable than continuous capillaries 3. function in absoprtion or filtration 4. located in small intestine, endocrine glands and kidney
13
Pinocytotic vesicles Red blood cell in lumen Fenestrations (pores) Endothelial nucleus Intercellular cleft Basement membrane Endothelial cell Tight junction Fenestrated capillary. Large fenestrations (pores) increase permeability. Occurs in areas of active absorption or filtration (e.g., kidney, small intestine).
14
E. Sinusoid Capillaries
1. fewer tight junctions 2. usually fenestrated 3. larger intercellular clefts and large lumens 4. large molecules pass between blood and surrounding tissues 5. found only in the liver, bone marrow, spleen, adrenal medulla 6. in the liver, hepatic macrophages in lining to destroy bacteria
15
Endothelial cell Red blood cell in lumen Large intercellular cleft Tight junction Nucleus of endothelial cell Incomplete basement membrane Sinusoid capillary. Most permeable. Occurs in special locations (e.g., liver, bone marrow, spleen).
16
F. Capillary Transport 1. direct diffusion 2. through intercellular clefts 3. through cytoplasmic vesicles 4. through fenestrations G. Blood brain barrier 1. capillaries have complete tight junctions 2. no intercellular clefts are present 3. vital molecules pass through a. highly selective transport mechanisms 4. NOT a barrier against: a. Oxygen, carbon dioxide, and some anesthetics
17
H. Blood Flow through Capillary Bed
1. vascular shunt (meta-arteriole) a. connects terminal arteriole and postcapillary venule 2. true capillaries a per capillary bed b. branch off metarteriole or terminal arteriole 3. Precapillary sphincters regulate blood flow into true capillaries a. blood may go through true capillaries or through shunt b. regulated by local chemical conditions and vasomotor nerves c. example: eating and relaxing i. blood flow in the digestive system ii. abdominal cramps and indigestion = eating then running!
18
Vascular shunt Precapillary sphincters Metarteriole Thoroughfare channel True capillaries Terminal arteriole Postcapillary venule Sphincters open—blood flows through true capillaries.
19
Terminal arteriole Postcapillary venule Sphincters closed—blood flows through metarteriole – thoroughfare channel and bypasses true capillaries.
20
V. Veins A. Venules join to form veins
B. Have thinner walls, larger lumens compared with corresponding arteries C. Thin tunica media; thick tunica externa of collagen fibers and elastic networks D. Called capacitance vessels (blood reservoirs); up to 65% of blood supply E. Blood pressure lower than in arteries (walls don’t burst!) F. Adaptations ensure return of blood to heart despite low pressure 1. Large-diameter lumens offer little resistance 2. Venous valves prevent backflow of blood a. most abundant in veins of limbs 3. Venous sinuses: flattened veins with extremely thin walls (e.g., coronary sinus of the heart & dural sinuses of the brain)
21
a. particularly in limbs b. prevent backflow of blood
G. Mechanisms to counteract low venous pressure 1. Valves in some veins a. particularly in limbs b. prevent backflow of blood c. not located in veins of thoracic and abdominal cavities 2. Skeletal muscle pump a. muscles press against thin-walled veins

26
VI. Vascular Anastomoses
A. Vessels interconnect to form vascular anastomoses 1. organs receive blood from more than one arterial source 2. neighboring arteries form arterial anastomoses 3. provide collateral channels 4. veins anastomose more frequently than arteries
