Time-Related Alteration in Flow- (Shear Stress-) Mediated Remodeling in Resistance Arteries from Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disorders. As flow-mediated outward remodeling has a key role in postischemic revascularization, we investigated this remodeling in mesenteric resistance arteries of normotensive (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) aged 3 to 9 month...
