Tóm tắt

AbstractWe showed previously in rabbits that 0.2 and 0.35 T static magnetic field (SMF) modulated systemic hemodynamics by arterial baroreceptors. We now have measured the effect of 0.25 T SMF on microcirculation within cutaneous tissue of the rabbit ear lobe by the rabbit ear chamber (REC) method. Forty experimental runs (20 controls and 20 SMF) were carried out in eight different rabbits with an equal number of control and SMF experiments on each individual. Rabbits were sedated by pentobarbital sodium (5 mg/kg/h, i.v.) during the entire 80 min experiment. SMF was generated by four neodium‐iron‐boron alloy (Nd2‐Fe14‐B) magnets (15 × 25 × 30 mm, Neomax, PIP ‐ Tokyo Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan), positioned around the REC on the observing stage of an optical microscope. The direct intravital microscopic observation of the rabbit's ear microvascular net, along with simultaneous blood flow measurement by microphotoelectric plethysmography (MPPG), were performed PRE (20 min, baseline), DURING (40 min), and POST (20 min) magnetic field exposure. The control experiments were performed under the same conditions and according to the same time course, but without magnetic field. Data were analyzed comparing MPPG values and percent change from baseline in the same series, and between corresponding sections of control and SMF runs. In contrast to control series (100 ± 0.0%–90.0 ± 5.4%–87.7 ± 7.1%, PRE–EXPOSURE–POST), after magnetic field exposure we observed increased blood flow (100 ± 0.0%–117.8 ± 9.6%*–113.8 ± 14.0%, *P < 0.05) which gradually decreased after exposure cessation. We propose that long exposure of a high level nonuniform SMF probably modifies microcirculatory homeostasis through modulation of the local release of endothelial neurohumoral and paracrine factors that act directly on the smooth muscle of the vascular wall, presumably by affecting ion channels or second messenger systems.
