Histomorphometric analysis of the right common carotid artery proximal to the band (RCCA-B) in the sham-operated (SHAM) and transverse aortic constriction (TAC) groups 14 days after the procedure. (a,b) Hematoxylin and eosin staining revealed increased medial and adventitial thicknesses in RCCA-B from the TAC group. a, adventitia; m, media. Bar, 100 μm. Total magnification, × 100. (c,d) Quantification data showing increased folds of the medial and adventitial cross-section areas in the TAC group. Six sections were used in the quantification. Results are expressed as the mean±s.d., n=6 for each group; *P<0.05 compared with the SHAM group. A full color version of this figure is available at Hypertension Research online.
