Substrate stiffness differentially impacts autophagy of endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells
Stiffening of blood vessels is one of the most important characteristics in the process of many cardiovascular pathologies such as atherosclerosis, angiosteosis, and vascular aging.

The arterial mechanical microenvironment, including stiffness, is a crucial pathophysiological feature of vascular remodeling, such as neointimal hyperplasia after carotid endarterectomy and balloon dilatation surgeries.

Substrate stiffness directs diverging vascular fates [PDF]
Embryonic stem cells (ESC) are excellent cell culture systems for elucidating developmental signals that may be part of the stem cell niche. Although stem cells are traditionally induced using predominately soluble signals, the mechanical environment of the niche can also play a role in directing cells towards differential cell lineages.

Reversal of aging-induced increases in aortic stiffness by targeting cytoskeletal protein-protein interfaces [PDF]
Background: The proximal aorta normally functions as a critical shock absorber that protects small downstream vessels from damage by pressure and flow pulsatility generated by the heart during systole.

Association of vascular stiffness and geriatric syndromes in hypertensive elderly patients
Aim. To study the relationship of vascular stiffness (cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI)) with frailty and other geriatric syndromes in hypertensive elderly patients.Material and methods. The study included 160 patients aged 60 to 101 years with verified

Arterial Stiffness and Vascular Aging: Effects of Hypertension
This review highlights the relationship of age and arterial hypertension observed in the aging process. The main structural and functional changes underlying the increase in vascular stiffness are analyzed. The similarity of vascular changes in aging and
