The interlobular arteries pass directly outward between the medullary rays to reach the fibrous tunic, where they end in the capillary network of this part.

In 1661 he identified and described the pulmonary and capillary network connecting small arteries with small veins, one of the major discoveries in the history of science.

The cell membrane is composed of proteins and lipids, and this structure provides properties essential for physiological stability while traversing the circulatory system and specifically the capillary network.
14.
From there it is carried quickly to the brain, where it moves out of the capillary network into brain tissue where it will find its destination : the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
15.
Normally, capillary networks _ fine-mesh structures of tiny blood vessels _ function as a buffer zone between sturdy arteries, in which blood flows forcefully, and thin-walled veins, which return blood to the heart and lungs.
16.
However, as a culture becomes larger and more complex, such as the case with engineered organs and whole tissues, other mechanisms must be employed to maintain the culture, such as the creation of capillary networks within the tissue.
17.
This is likely an important tool for thermoregulation, allowing the bats to control the amount of heat exchanged through the thin flight membrane ( many other mammals use the capillary network in oversized ears for the same purpose ).
18.
In the fully open state, these allow oxygenated blood to flow through the capillary network across the flight membrane ( i . e . wing surface ), but when contracted, they shunt flow directly to the veins, bypassing the wing capillaries.
19.
However, when autotransfusion is performed, millions of small lipid particles ( lipid microemboli ) pass straight through the filter and are introduced into the patient s circulatory system, resulting in microembolisation of the capillary network in the bodily organs and subsequent local ischemic tissue damage.

A report in Tuesday's issue of Circulation : Journal of the American Heart Association says that by injecting the protein near the blocked vessels, the researchers were able to induce neoangiogenesis, the process by which the body can grow its own new capillary network to bypass occluded vessels.
