Significance of Vascular tissue
Vascular tissue, as defined by both Ayurveda and Health Sciences, encompasses specialized tissues. In Ayurveda, it refers to blood vessels and the xylem and phloem elements in plants. Health Sciences expands this definition to include tissues forming blood vessels, like arteries and veins, and the conducting tissues in plants, specifically xylem and phloem. It is crucial for transporting water, nutrients, and photosynthetic products. Vascular tissue's role extends to experiments on blood vessel function and is vital during surgical procedures to avoid breach.

Hindu concept of 'Vascular tissue'
In Hinduism, vascular tissue encompasses three aspects: the circular xylem and phloem in roots, the water and nutrient-transporting tissue within the Rajakoshataki fruit's parenchyma, and the blood-transporting tissue in blood vessels, vital for life.
From: Sushruta Samhita, volume 3: Sharirasthana
(1) The specialized tissue in blood vessels responsible for transporting blood throughout the body.[1]
From: Journal of Ayurveda and Integrated Medical Sciences
(1) This refers to the plant tissue responsible for transporting water and nutrients, observed in the parenchymatous region of the Rajakoshataki fruit.[2]
From: Journal of Ayurvedic and Herbal Medicine
(1) This refers to the xylem and phloem elements in the root, arranged in a circle.[3]
The concept of Vascular tissue in scientific sources
Vascular tissue, as described in the text, encompasses various aspects. It refers to blood vessels, tissues for water and nutrient transport in plants (xylem and phloem), and tissues studied for their responses to different factors like osmolarity and medicinal compounds.
From: International Journal of Pharmacology
(1) It contains angiotensin I, which can be converted to angiotensin II by chymase, and the increased chymase activity may play an important role in increasing extracellular matrix.[4] (2) The data obtained from this study provide an evidence that inhibition of NLRP3/ASC/pro-caspase-1 inflammasome formation/activity in renal, cardiac and these tissues of endotoxemic rats involves in the protective effect of 5,14-HEDGE.[5] (3) CGRP is released from sensory nerve endings and is extensively disseminated throughout the body’s peripheral and central vascular tissues.[6] (4) Upon activation of an immune response, lipids accumulate in vascular and bone tissues which result in atherosclerosis and osteolysis.[7] (5) These are involved in complex reactions when facing various stimuli, including pathogens, damaged cells or irritants.[8]
From: The Malaysian Journal of Medical Sciences
(1) Vascular tissue is mentioned in the text as a tissue that should not be breached during the meticulous en-bloc excision of the mass, as this is a crucial step.[9]
From: South African Family Practice
(1) Inflammation is defined as ‘the response of this tissue to physiological damage’.[10]
From: Asian Journal of Pharmaceutics
(1) The inflammation is a biological complex of these in harmful stimulated by pathogens and irritants and has been major health problems in the world.[11]
From: International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (MDPI)
(1) Hypercoagulability is also a cause of VTE in addition to damage to the vascular tissue and abnormal hemodynamics.[12] (2) Fundamental changes in vascular tissues that occur with aging include a decrease in maximum heart rate, stiffer tissues, and decreased contractility, impacting cardiovascular health.[13]
From: Sustainability Journal (MDPI)
(1) Describes a tissue that experienced a reduction around the microchip when the tag was inserted in small-diameter plants.[14]
