Abstract
The relationship between the endothelial surface layer and the microvascular turbulence resistance in blood vessels were investigated through analysis of the results of heparinase microinfusion in mesenteric network of arteries in rats. Results obtained have shown the possible role of the concentration of plasma proteins in the composition of macromolecular glycocalyx protein lining the endothelium through increasing the colloid oncotic pressure.
