I. La-figure, 18 présente un échantillon ST provenant de l'artère carotide d'un Rat mâle témoin. Les figures IV)C.19 et IV)C.20 présentent les images d'un échantillon de l'artère carotide provenant de Rats descendants d'un père traité. Nous observons que les feuillets d'élastine sont irrégulièrement espacés et présentent des ondulations (figure IV)C
