Different biomechanical properties of medial and adventitial layers of thoracic aorta in Wistar-Kyoto and spontaneously hypertensive rats

AIM: To evaluate the biomechanical properties of thoracic aorta with or without adventitia, and to determine whether there are corresponding changes with hypertension. METHODS: Normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) at the age of 16 and 32 weeks were used. Tho...
