Abstract
Using implanted camera we studied hamster buccal pouch microvessels under conditions of reduced blood pressure. The correlation (R=0.30–0.85) between the diameter and pressure was observed in 42% vessels. During progressive decrease in blood pressure, R for the majority of left venules was below zero, while left arterioles had equal probability of having R<0 and R>0. For right venules the positive and negative correlations were equally probable, while right arterioles were predominantly characterized by R>0. Heterogeneous reactions in microvessels of different diameter were revealed.
