Figure 1

Stress - strain relationships (A), and normalized passive wall thickness (WT; B), outer diameter (OD; C) and volume compliance (D) against intraluminal pressures in mesenteric arteries from Rln+/+ (▪) and Rln −/− (□) mice. Values are mean ± SEM. * significantly (P = 0.01) less than Rln+/+ mice, n = 8–9.
