The parameters of lymphatic contractile activity in isolated segments of the rat mesenteric lymphatic vessels after culture under non-pressurized conditions.

Day 0 – parameters of lymphatic contractile activity in control group of non-cultured lymphatic segments (n=5); Days 7-9 - parameters of lymphatic contractile activity in group of lymphatic segments cultured for 7-9 days (n=10). *Indicates significant differences (P ≤ 0.05) within each group between parameters at initial level of transmural pressure of 1 cm H2O and at all other levels of transmural pressure during the acute functional tests; ◇ Indicates significant differences (P ≤ 0.05) between lymphatic tone index values in Day 0 and Days 7-9 groups.
