Role of chronic shear stress in endothelial form and function
Endothelial cells in vivo exist in a dynamic environment, subject to the physical forces of blood flow as it is regulated through the cardiac cycle. Arguably, the most important force endothelial cells are subject to is shear stress, the frictional force of blood flow across the cell surface. Areas...
