Vasomofion is suggested to play an important role for the transvascular fluid exchange and the exchange of nutri-ents over the capillary wall as well as the formation of interstitial fluid. The present study was undertaken to elucidatewhether vasomotion is present in the testes of different species independent of their anatomical vascular topography.Blood flow in the testes of mouse, brush-tailed possum, tammar wallaby, ram and human was investigated by using alaser Doppler fiowmeter. Vasomotion was found in all the species investigated. (Asian J Androl 2000 Dec; 2: 297-30O)展开更多
