Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation of collagen waviness and orientation in the arterial adventitia using confocal laser scanning microscopy.
Rana Rezakhaniha,Aristotelis Agianniotis,Jelle T. C. Schrauwen,Alessandra Griffa,Daniel Sage,Carlijn V. C. Bouten,F.N. van de Vosse,Michael Unser,Nikolaos Stergiopulos +8 more
TL;DR: Information on collagen fiber waviness and orientation could be used to develop structural models of the adventitia, providing better means for analyzing and understanding the mechanical properties of vascular wall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular effects of arginase inhibition in spontaneously hypertensive rats with fully developed hypertension
Teddy Bagnost,Ling Ma,Rafaela F. da Silva,Rafaela F. da Silva,Rana Rezakhaniha,Christophe Houdayer,Nikos Stergiopulos,Claire André,Yves Claude Guillaume,Alain Berthelot,Céline Demougeot +10 more
TL;DR: The results report that a long-term treatment with an arginase inhibitor reduced blood pressure, improved vascular function, and reduced cardiac fibrosis in SHR with fully developed hypertension, and suggest thatArginase represents a promising novel target for pharmacological intervention in essential hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
A method for the quantification of the pressure dependent 3D collagen configuration in the arterial adventitia
Jelle T. C. Schrauwen,Anna Vilanova,Rana Rezakhaniha,Nikolaos Stergiopulos,F.N. van de Vosse,Peter H. M. Bovendeerd +5 more
TL;DR: The method is the first to combine high resolution imaging with a new automatic image processing approach to quantify the 3D configuration of collagen in the adventitia as a function of pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Structural Model of the Venous Wall Considering Elastin Anisotropy
TL;DR: It is concluded that anisotropic description of elastin is required for a full 3D characterization of the biomechanics of the venous wall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental characterization of the distribution of collagen fiber recruitment
TL;DR: Experimental proof of progressive collagen recruitment was established, which validates the basic hypothesis of the model and good qualitative agreement was found between the experimental distribution of collagen recruitment and the model.
