Figure 4. Twist decreases medial wall collagen to elastin ratio.

Figure 4

Photographs: Representative images of arterial cross section with elastin (Verhoeff) and collagen (Van Gieson) staining of the control and twisted arteries. Scale bar represent 100 μm. Bargraphs: Left: comparison of elastin and collagen contents (mean ± SD, n=6) in the control and twisted arteries. Right: comparison of collagen to elastin ratio (mean ± SD, n=6) in the control and twisted arteries. ** p < 0.01 vs. controls.
