P1.3 A NEW DYNAMIC ORGAN BATH SETUP TO ASSESS ISOBARIC STIFFNESS PARAMETERS OF PERIODICALLY STRETCHED ISOLATED MOUSE AORTIC SEGMENTS
Cyclic stretch is a major contributor of vascular function. However, isolated mouse aortas are frequently studied at low stretch frequency or even isometric conditions. Pacing experiments done in rodents and humans show that arterial compliance is highly cyclic stretch frequency-dependent. The Roden...
