Aortic Strain Correlates With Elastin Fragmentation in Fibrillin-1 Hypomorphic Mice

Background: High-frequency ultrasound has facilitated in vivo measurement of murine ascending aorta, allowing aortic strain to be determined from 2-D imaging. Thoracic aortic aneurysms associated with mutations in fibrillin-1 (FBN1) display elastin fragmentation, which may affect aortic strain. In t...
