Methods: After AngII infusion (14-day, 1000 ng/kg/min) and euthanasia, excised thoracic aortas were characterized functionally using isobaric vasoactive and cyclic passive stiffness tests. Immunohistochemistry quantified medial/adventitial composition and infiltration of pan-inflammatory CD45+ cells. RNA sequencing-based gene ontology, wall stress analyses, and growth and remodeling (G&R) simulations were performed to complement our mechanical findings.
