“…This figure is similar to previously reported data from both conscious and pentobarbital-anaesthetised dogs [17,22], Neither heart rate nor arterial blood pressure differed significantly between lymph-drained and control animals. Thus, the removal of thoracic duct lymph continuously over a period of 5.5 h had no appreciable effect on the cardiovascular parameters recorded.…”

The effect of continuous removal of thoracic duct lymph on plasma activities of creatine phosphokinase (PCK), glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (PAST); and lactic dehydrogenase (PLDH), was examined in pentobarbital-anaesthetised dogs over a 5.5- hour period. PCK and PAST declined relative to levels in control dogs while PLDH was unaltered. Lymph/plasma (L/P) ratios for AST and CPK were greater, and for LDH less, than the L/P ratio for total protein. It was concluded that PCK, and to some extent PAST, are normally maintained by introduction of enzyme, escaping from the intracellular compartment, into the circulating blood via the lymphatic system. PLDH and PAST appear to be maintained principally by introduction of enzyme directly from the intracellular to the plasma compartment.

“…In this way, thoracic-duct lymph flow was found to be maintained at about the normal rate for dogs (2 ml/kg/h) (Courtice, 1943;Watkins and Fulton, 1938;Yoffey, 1932-3).…”

Summary.-The concentration of 5-fluorouracil (FU) in thoracic-duct lymph, portalvein blood and peripheral arterial blood of beagle dogs was greater after administration into the submucosa of the stomach than after the bolus i.v. injection. The concentration of FU in thoracic-duct lymph, portal-vein blood and arterial blood was least following administration into the lumen of the stomach. The total FU recovered over 6 h from thoracic-duct lymph was compared following the three routes of administration and was found to be greatest following injection into the submucosa of stomach.

“…However, no significant relationship between changes in thoracic duct flow and renal plasma flow caused by exposure of the renal artery was found. Watkins & Fulton (1938) reported two experiments in which they performed a laparotomy while measuring thoracic duct flow in dogs. In one of their experiments the fall in flow persisted whereas in the other it was transient.…”

SUMMARY1. The renal contribution to thoracic duct lymph was measured in seventeen anaesthetized fasting dogs by measurement of thoracic duct flow before and after renal arterial occlusion.2. In eight experiments it was shown that thoracic duct flow and glomerular filtration rate were not significantly affected by the operation to expose the renal artery.3. In three experiments occlusion of the renal vein, after release of arterial occlusion, resulted in a sudden increase in thoracic duct flow.4. In animals infused with isotonic saline or dextrose (approximately 1 ml./min) the average values obtained for control thoracic duct flow, left renal flow and right renal flow were approximately 2-0, 0 7 and 0 3 ml./ hr/kg body wt.: in non-infused animals these values were 1P4, 0 4 and 0 35 ml./hr/kg body wt. respectively. 5. Possible reasons for the apparently smaller lymph flow from the right than the left kidney, and the relationship between the renal contribution to thoracic duct flow and actual renal lymph flow are discussed.6. Close correlation was found between control thoracic duct flow and body weight and between renal lymph flow and control thoracic duct flow.
