| pubmed-article:6477673 | pubmed:abstractText | The biomechanical properties of rat aorta, muscle tendon and skin were studied after daily D-penicillamine treatment (500 mg/kg) for 5, 10 and 42 days. D-Penicillamine treatment for 5 days resulted in increased aortic extensibility. After long-term treatment the aorta exhibited a shift towards decreased extensibility and increased stiffness at small 'stress' values. Simultaneously the dry weight and diameter of the aortic samples were increased after D-penicillamine treatment for 42 days. After correction of the mechanical parameters for the increased amount of tissue of the samples, the stiffness at small 'stress' values was still increased and the mechanical stability at high 'stress' values retained. This is in contrast to the marked reduction in the strength of muscle tendon and skin of the same animals after D-penicillamine treatment for 42 days. This study demonstrates that a primary increase in the extensibility of aorta may elicit a reactive formation of vascular connective tissue. It is proposed that aortic smooth muscle cells are activated by an increased pulsatile distension of the vessel wall secondary to the early effect of D-penicillamine on collagen and elastin. The resulting excess deposition of collagen and elastin leads to increased stiffness, which may in turn increase the susceptibility of the aortic wall to hemodynamic injury. Consequently D-penicillamine may not as proposed counteract the development of atherosclerosis. | lld:pubmed |
