Pulse-wave velocity (PWV) as a measure of vascular compliance. PWV measurements of C57BL6/J WT mice (A) and ob/ob leptin-deficient mice (B) were recorded on day 28 to assess in vivo vascular compliance. Increased PWV indicates increased vascular stiffness. Values are means ± SE, n = 8–20/group. P < 0.05 vs. RA, †P < 0.05 vs. no leptin, ‡significant interaction between IH and leptin treatment; §P < 0.05 ob/ob vs. WT.
