The structure of brain microcirculatory mainstream of the rats after the traumatic brain injury under the action of 2-ethil-6-methil-3-hydroxiperidin succinate. (a Arteriole. Within 1 days after TBI in arteriole clearance there were singular erythrocytes, moderate endothelium edema, highly expressed perivascular edema, b—Venule. 1 day after the TBI in venule lumen there were erythrocyte aggregations, moderate endothelium edema, highly expressed perivascular edema, c—Capillary. 1 day after TBI in capillary lumen there were sludge from erythrocytes, moderate endothelium edema, highly expressed perivascular edema, d—Arteriole. 3 days after the TBI there were the parietal erythrocytes aggregations in arterioles. Moderate endothelium edema and perivascular edema were defined, e—Venule. 3 days after the TBI there were moderate endothelium edema, in the lumen between them they were defined, f—Capillary. 3 days after the TBI in capillaries erythrocytes sludges, moderate perivascular edema were defined, g—Arteriole. 7 days after the TBI the arteriole lumen partially collapsed, with singular erythrocytes in its lumen. Poorly expressed perivascular edema was observed, h—Venule. 7 days after the TBI here were distinguished free laying count blood elements in the lumen of the most of venules. Everywhere poorly expressed perivascular edema was observed, i—Capillary. 7 days after the TBI there were free laying erythrocytes in the capillary lumen, perivascular edema was not expressed, j—Arteriole. 12 days after the TBI there were singular count blood elements in the most of arteriole lumens; endothelium was without the features of edema. Perivascular edema was poorly expressed, k—Venule. 12 days after the TBI there were no count blood elements in the lumens of the most of venules or it was possible to meet singular free laying erythrocytes. Endothelium was without or with poorly expressed edema. Perivascular edema was poorly expressed, l—Capillary. 12 days after the there were free laying erythrocytes in capillary lumens. Around the most of them perivascular edema was absent). Scale bar is 100 μm, original magnification × 200 for arteriole and venule. Scale bar is 50 μm, original magnification × 400 for capillary. Abbreviations: Ag—aggregates from red blood cells, Ed edema, En endothelium, H—hyaline blood clots, RBC—red blood cells, T thrombuses
