Stress and Vascular Responses: Atheroprotective Effect of Laminar Fluid Shear Stress in Endothelial Cells: Possible Role of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases
Atherosclerosis preferentially occurs in areas of turbulent blood flow and low fluid shear stress, whereas laminar blood flow and high shear stress are atheroprotective. Inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), stimulate expression of endothelial cell (EC) genes that may prom...
