Mechanical properties of uterine arteries are not affected by RGS2 deficiency. Circumferential wall strain (A) and wall stress (B), and incremental arteriolar distensibility of uterine arteries from wild type (Rgs2+/+, closed circle), Rgs2 heterozygous (Rgs2+/−, closed triangle), and homozygous knockout (Rgs2−/−, open square) mice were determined under Ca²⁺‐free conditions with increasing intraluminal pressure. (D) Circumferential wall stress‐strain relationship generated using values from figures A and B. Values are mean ± SE.
