Biomechanical and Microstructural Properties of Common Carotid Arteries from Fibulin-5 Null Mice

Alteration in the mechanical properties of arteries occurs with aging and disease, and arterial stiffening is a key risk factor for subsequent cardiovascular events. Arterial stiffening is associated with the loss of functional elastic fibers and increased collagen content in the wall of large arter...
