Age-related changes of wall composition and collagen cross-linking in the rat carotid artery – In relation with arterial mechanics

In association with age-related changes in arterial wall mechanics, the composition of connective tissues, the fraction and size of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs), and the degree of collagen cross-linking were studied with common carotid arteries harvested from 8, 16, 32, and 64 week-old Wistar...
