Abstract

Dependence of collagen synthesis intensity from mechanical load in rat skin and aortas of different ages has been investigated in the study. The data which are in favour of the fact that collagen synthesis intensity specific growthes under the mechanical load influence rise with age have been obtained. Hence, connective tissue cell sensitivity threshold to the mechanical load influence drops with age. This conclusion can be interpreted by known fact that connective tissue extracellular matrix stiffness rises with age.
