- Artery and Vein, Monkey
- Description:
- Histology: Artery & Vein, Monkey; H&E (1.5 microns)
There are two vessels on this slide. Some features of muscular arteries include: omnipresent internal elastic membrane (sometimes observed without elastic stains), a thick middle coat of tightly packed smooth muscle, and a tunica adventitia the width of which is of the same dimension or smaller than the tunica media.
C. Arteriole
Arterioles are the smallest of muscular arteries. By definition, the tunica media of arteriole contains l-7 layers of smooth muscle. The smallest arterioles, i.e., those with one layer of smooth muscle are the easiest to identify. These are characterized by the following features:
1. a lumen which is approximately the size of a capillary or
2. a lumen which is approximately l/3 the cross-sectional diameter of the vessel.
3. three tunics which are equal in size or thinner than the size of the vessel's lumen.
4. very little adventitia
