"Instead of Arterial Size Arterial Function Makes an Artery Elastic or Muscular"–Theory of Arterial Elasticity or Muscularity

Dr. Keshaw Kumar

Abstract :

In order to create theory of arterial elasticity or muscularity tissue of ascending aorta and pulmonary trunk was obtained at constant levels from human, buffalo, pig, goat, dog rabbit and rat of adult age group to be preseved in 10% formalin. After processing paraffin sections of 10 micron thickness were stained with orcein and counterstained with haematoxylin and eosin. Density of elastic fies was observed + in tunica intima ++++ in tunica media and +++ in tunica adventitia while density of smooth muscle fies was observed + in tunica media and nil in tunica intima as well as tunica adventitia of ascending aorta and pulmonary trunk per magnified field in all the mammals studied. It was concluded that "Instead of arterial size, arterial function makes an artery elastic or muscular"–Theory of arterial elasticity or muscularity created by Dr. Keshaw Kumar.
