Objectives: As the peripheral part of the primo vascular system (PVS) is difficult to visualize, we used a vascular casting material Mercox injected directly into the skin to take advantage of a simple procedure to visualize PVS structures as primo vessels (PVs) and primo nodes (PNs) in the skin. Methods: Two colors of the polymer Mercox were injected into mouse skin. After a partial maceration of the whole body with potassium hydroperoxide solution, we anatomized it under a stereomicroscope to trace the Mercox that had been injected into the PVS. Results: Injection of Mercox directly into the skin allowed the PVs and the PNs to be visualized. This approach can fill the PVS when the material is ejected out of the PVs or PNs. The shapes, sizes, and topographic positions of the nodes and the vessels are the hallmarks used to identify the PVS in skin when Mercox is used as a tracer. Conclusion: The direct injection of the casting material Mercox into skin, with modified partial maceration procedures, is a promising method for visualizing the PVs and the PNs in the peripheral part of the PVS in skin. The polymer Mercox can penetrate through the primo pores of the primo vascular wall and fill the PVs and the PNs. The data prove that PVs and PNs exist on the hypodermal layer of the skin.

The magnetic properties for sanal's mobility inside of the lymphatic primo vascular system, the so-called Kyungrak (or meridian) system, are investigated under a low static magnetic field with the anatomy technology and optical microscope. One sanal with a size of 1 ${\mu}m$ under microscope selected and separated from the primo vessels of the primo vascular system are observed in rabbits' lymphatic vessels around abdominal aorta and placed in PBS solution with petridish. The moving displacement of sanal versus the measuring time of 20 Oe below a magnetic field of 80 Oe is stronger in dominanting dependence according to the x-direction than y-direction.

해부학적 기술로 경락의 실체인 프리모 시스템 내에 존재하는 산알을 획득하여 운동 모습을 광학 현미경으로 분석하였고, 낮은 정자기장하에서 운동 특성을 조사하였다. 토끼 장기 표면으로부터 산알이 다량으로 몰려있는 프리모 소체 내에 약 1 ${\mu}m$ 정도 크기의 산알들을 선택 및 분리시켜, 패트리 디쉬 안에 PBS 용액과 산알을 담았다. 내부 온도 $38^{\circ}C$, 100 Oe 이하 일정한 외부 자기장에 평행방향과 수직방향으로 움직이는 산알의 운동속도를 관찰하였다. 평행방향 외부 자기장이 0 Oe에서 80 Oe까지 20 Oe 증가함에 따라 5개 산알 중 4개는 약 0.9 pixel/s의 평균속도로 감소하는 뚜렷한 경향성을 갖고 있음을 볼 수 있었다. 반면에 수직 방향으로 운동하는 산알의 경우, 외부 자기장이 없을 때와 비슷한 무작위로 운동함을 관찰하였다. 이러한 실험결과로부터 산알 핵 DNA내에 망간(Mn)과 코발트(Co) 등의 다량의 무기물을 함유하는 산알이 회전운동을 하면서 움직일 때, 외부 자기장을 인가함으로써 운동 특성을 약화시키는 자기적 특성이 있는 것으로 사료되었다.

Inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT) is a term defining a mass characterized microscopically by a proliferation of bland mesenchymal spindle cells infiltrated by diffuse mixed inflammatory cells with a predominance of plasma cells and lymphocytes. Here, we show the primo vessel-like structure of the primo-vascular system (PVS) in a dog with IPT. A 6-years old male Mongrel dog was diagnosed with an abnormal mass (diameter 5.5 cm, weight 22 g) near left preputial area. The dog was submitted to the surgical detectomy of the mass. During the surgical operation, we observed primo vessel-like material. After fixations, the masses appeared macroscopically as lipoid-like, firm, white to grey masses, measuring $5{\times}8cm$. Histologically, cellular infiltration into the muscular layers was frequently seen. The mesenchymal proliferation remained the main component of the mass and was composed of myofibroblastic-like spindle cells characterized by globular, irregular nuclei containing open chromatin and a prominent nucleolus. On the basis of the histopathologic lesions, the subcutaneous mass was diagnosed as IPT. Also, we detected a primo vessel-like structures in some areas of the IPT tissues. These were observed as novel thread-like structures and bundle of tubular structures. To our knowledge, this report is the first case of primo vessel-like structure in a dog with IPT.
