This is the first study to examine vascular stiffness down the aortic tree in aging premenopausal females (24 ± 0.7 yr old), whereas prior work studied mainly rodents, which are short-lived and do not undergo menopause. Histological mechanisms mediating vascular stiffness in older premenopausal females increased progressively down the aortic tree, with greater increases in the abdominal aorta compared with the thoracic aorta and with the greatest increases and differences observed in the iliac artery.
