LYMPHATICS IN THE AORTA OF RATS TREATED WITH A SOY-BEAN OIL EXTRACT (LIPOFUNDIN)

Authors: E Takacs ( ) , H Jellinek ( )

Abstract

Lipofundin-S 20% (a soy-bean oil extract) when administered intravenously to rats resulted in dilation of aortic lymphatics at the media-adventitia junction. Increased endothelial permeability as demonstrated by intraaortic colloidal iron uptake with dynamic insufficiency of lymphatic drainage is suggested as the basis for dilatation of intraaortic adventitial lymphatics.
