Large, elastic arteries are composed of cells and a specialized extracellular matrix that provides reversible elasticity and strength. Elastin is the matrix protein responsible for this reversible elasticity that reduces the workload on the heart and dampens pulsatile flow in distal arteries.

26 Δεκ 2019 · These arteries progressively lose their low-stretch bearing component, shifting load to stiffer matrix components (collagen). At the same time, arteries also lose some of their longitudinal elasticity and geometry, leading to elongation and increased tortuosity.
1 Ιαν 2008 · PDF | The aim of this paper is to provide a study of different models of the mechanical non-linear stress-strain behaviour of arteries. | Find, read and cite all the research you need on...
4 Μαΐ 2021 · An arterial wall has both elastic and viscous characteristics, and pathological and degenerative changes in the wall tissue affect the viscoelastic behavior of the artery wall. The arterial viscoelasticity may provide useful information regarding the development and progression of arterial diseases.
1 Σεπ 2015 · A key factor contributing to the successful simulation using one-dimensional models is the inclusion of elastic properties of blood vessel walls. This paper is devoted to the comparative analysis...
Learning Objectives. Distinguish the elastic artery from the muscular artery. Key Points. Elastic arteries include the largest arteries in the body, those closest to the heart. They give rise to medium-sized vessels known as muscular, or distributing, arteries.
2 Φεβ 2018 · Elastin is an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein with a unique biochemical structure that provides entropic elasticity, allowing the large arteries to reversibly expand and relax with every cardiac cycle.
