Stiffening Matrix Induces Age‐Mediated Microvascular Phenotype Through Increased Cell Contractility and Destabilization of Adherens Junctions

Aging is a major risk factor in microvascular dysfunction and disease development, but the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. As a result, age‐mediated changes in the mechanical properties of tissue collagen have gained interest as drivers of endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction. 3D culture...
