Abstract
The regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF) is mainly attributed to myogenic mechanisms and metabolic influences. The myogenic reaction to intraluminal pressure is considered to provide cerebral autoregu-lation (8), whereas pCO2 tension and tissue lactate level are assumed to regulate regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) according to metabolic requirements (7, 10). The means by which regulation of local cerebral microcirculation (1CBF) occurs, however, remains unknown (10).
