Anatomical Identification and Pressure Myography of the Rat Middle Cerebral Artery: A Comprehensive Protocol for Diverse Genetic Models

2026-06-16

Abstract excerpt

The middle cerebral artery (MCA) is critical for cerebral blood flow autoregulation and a primary site of cerebrovascular pathology in stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, and vascular dementia. Pressure myography enables precise ex vivo quantification of MCA structure and function, but requires accurate anatomical identification and careful vessel handling to ensure reproducibility across diverse rat genetic models. Thi...
