Transcapillary flow, which is important for tissue homeostasis, is influenced by the hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressures of capillaries and interstitium. The interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) of ...

In order to survive, organisms must control the pressure inside them, from the single-cell level to tissues and organs. Measuring these pressures in living cells and tissues in physiological ...

EXCHANGES of water between blood and tissues are generally believed, since Starling's work, to be regulated by the equilibrium of two forces, namely, hydrostatic capillary pressure which drives water ...
