TL;DR: A scanning micro indentation tester, a scaled-up version of the atomic force microscope, and measured the topography and the stiffness distribution of the cut surface found that the surface of the section of porcine thoracic aortas shows hill and valley pattern corresponding with their histology, indicating that the hills are the ELs and the valleys the SMLs.

TL;DR: It is suggested that physical activity enhances the endogenous ability to defend against oxidative stress, and even though glutathione synthesis is decreased, the regenerating capacity seems to be increased in order to compensate for the increased oxidative stress.
Abstract: The effects of exercise on the generation of active oxygen species and radical-scavenging capacity were studied in physically active and sedentary young and old rats. Exercise increased the hydroxyl radical content in all tissues of physically active young rats, except in the plasma. In old rats, the basal level of the radical increased significantly in plasma, heart, and skeletal muscles, but decreased in liver; and physical activity decreased it to that of young rats in most cases. With exercise, the content of reduced glutathione increased in plasma, heart, and skeletal muscles of young rats, whereas that of oxidized glutathione markedly decreased in liver and increased in brain and white gastrocnemius muscle. The total glutathione levels in these tissues changed in a similar way, indicating that glutathione was released from the pool in the liver. In rats allowed to run voluntarily for 5 weeks, the effects were more pronounced than in the sedentary rats. The ratio of reduced to total glutathione, which indicates the capacity to reduce glutathione, increased in plasma, heart, and soleus muscle of sedentary young rats after exercise, and increased further in those undergoing physical activity. In old rats, the reduced glutathione level increased in plasma, heart, liver, and brain, even though the total decreased. These results suggest that physical activity enhances the endogenous ability to defend against oxidative stress. In old rats, even though glutathione synthesis is decreased, the regenerating capacity seems to be increased in order to compensate for the increased oxidative stress.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the nozzle diameter and volume ratio on the structure of the torch jet, ignition process, and subsequent burning process in the main chamber were minutely examined, in both uniform and stratified charges, by measurements of ion current, light emission, OH-emission (306.4 nm), initial torch jet velocity, and main chamber pressure histories and by schlieren photography.
