The myogenic mechanism contributes to basal vascular tone and the legislation of transmural strain, whereas the metabolic mechanism is chargeable for conserving a suitable stability among O2 call for and O2 supply. within the postprandial nation, hydrolytic items of nutrition digestion elicit a hyperemia, which serves to fulfill the elevated O2 call for of nutrient assimilation. Metabolically associated elements (e.g., tissue pO2, adenosine) are basically liable for this sensible hyperemia. The fenestrated capillaries of the gastrointestinal mucosa are fairly permeable to small hydrolytic items of nutrition digestion (e.g., glucose), but limit the transcapillary circulation of bigger molecules (e.g., albumin). this permits for the absorption of hydrolytic items of foodstuff digestion with out compromising the oncotic strain gradient governing transcapillary fluid stream and edema formation.
