Measurements of pancreatic microflow were investigated using hydrogen gas generated by electrolysis in dog. After laparatomy under general anesthesia, uncinate process of the pancreas was punctured by a needle electrode for electrolysis and determination of hydrogen gas. The consecutive measurements of pancreatic microflow revealed the good reproducibility at the same point of the pancreas. The simultaneous measurements of pancreatic microflow by electrolysis and pancreatic tissue blood flow by H2 inhalation method were carried out at the same point of the pancreas. Correlation analysis of both measurements revealed coefficient of 0.751 and a significant relationship was observed (p less than 0.05). However, the value was a little higher in pancreatic microflow as compared with pancreatic tissue blood flow. Pancreatic microflow and pancreatic exocrine secretion increased after intravenous administration of Dopamine and Secretin (10 micrograms/kg/min). It is concluded that the measurement of pancreatic microflow by hydrogen gas generated by electrolysis is a useful method on understanding the microcirculation of the pancreas.

D008833 Microcirculation The circulation of the BLOOD through the MICROVASCULAR NETWORK. Microvascular Blood Flow,Microvascular Circulation,Blood Flow, Microvascular,Circulation, Microvascular,Flow, Microvascular Blood,Microvascular Blood Flows,Microvascular Circulations
D010179 Pancreas A nodular organ in the ABDOMEN that contains a mixture of ENDOCRINE GLANDS and EXOCRINE GLANDS. The small endocrine portion consists of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS secreting a number of hormones into the blood stream. The large exocrine portion (EXOCRINE PANCREAS) is a compound acinar gland that secretes several digestive enzymes into the pancreatic ductal system that empties into the DUODENUM.
D004285 Dogs The domestic dog, Canis familiaris, comprising about 400 breeds, of the carnivore family CANIDAE. They are worldwide in distribution and live in association with people. (Walker's Mammals of the World, 5th ed, p1065) Canis familiaris,Dog
D004298 Dopamine One of the catecholamine NEUROTRANSMITTERS in the brain. It is derived from TYROSINE and is the precursor to NOREPINEPHRINE and EPINEPHRINE. Dopamine is a major transmitter in the extrapyramidal system of the brain, and important in regulating movement. A family of receptors (RECEPTORS, DOPAMINE) mediate its action.

D004572 Electrolysis Destruction by passage of a galvanic electric current, as in disintegration of a chemical compound in solution. Electrolyses
D006859 Hydrogen The first chemical element in the periodic table with atomic symbol H, and atomic number 1. Protium (atomic weight 1) is by far the most common hydrogen isotope. Hydrogen also exists as the stable isotope DEUTERIUM (atomic weight 2) and the radioactive isotope TRITIUM (atomic weight 3). Hydrogen forms into a diatomic molecule at room temperature and appears as a highly flammable colorless and odorless gas. Protium,Hydrogen-1

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
