Rutin is a citrus flavonoid glycoside found in many plants, including buckwheat, [7] the leaves and petioles of Rheum species, and asparagus. Tartary buckwheat seeds have been found to contain more rutin (about 0.8–1.7% dry weight) than common buckwheat seeds (0.01% dry weight). [7] Rutin is one of the primary flavonols found in 'clingstone ...
As the vein is found in close proximity to an artery the pulsations of the artery aid venous return. Claude Bernard suggested the interchange of heat between the arteries and adjacent veins might moderate cooling of the arterial blood, for which there is experimental evidence.
In vertebrates, the circulatory system is a system of organs that includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood which is circulated throughout the body. [1] [2] It includes the cardiovascular system, or vascular system, that consists of the heart and blood vessels (from Greek kardia meaning heart, and Latin vascula meaning vessels).
Oxerutins work by reducing leakage from the small blood vessels (capillaries). [4] Hydroxyethylrutosides have been used as an alternative to horse chestnut preparations containing aescin. Typical doses are in the order of 1,000 mg/day. [5] Effects of hydroxyethylrutosides against adriamycin-induced toxicity have been investigated in rats.
The deep lingual artery (or ranine artery) is the terminal portion of the lingual artery after the sublingual artery is given off.As seen in the picture, it travels superiorly in a tortuous course along the under (ventral) surface of the tongue, below the longitudinalis inferior, and above the mucous membrane.
The deep lingual vein is one of the lingual veins.It commences near the apex of the tongue.It passes posterior-ward close to the inferior surface of the tongue. It terminates near the anterior border of the hyoglossus muscle by uniting with the sublingual vein to form the vena comitans of the hypoglossal nerve (ranine vein [1]); this vein then passes posterior-ward alongside the nerve to empty ...
The tongue's upper surface (dorsum) is covered by taste buds housed in numerous lingual papillae. It is sensitive and kept moist by saliva and is richly supplied with nerves and blood vessels. The tongue also serves as a natural means of cleaning the teeth. [2] A major function of the tongue is to enable speech in humans and vocalization in ...
The nose is also made up of types of soft tissue such as skin, epithelia, mucous membrane, muscles, nerves, and blood vessels. In the skin there are sebaceous glands, and in the mucous membrane there are nasal glands. [2] The bones and cartilages provide strong protection for the internal structures of the nose.
