A multiple-channel, multiple-assay platform for characterization of full-range shear stress effects on vascular endothelial cells
1 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
Vascular endothelial cells (VECs), which line blood vessels and are key to understanding pathologies and treatments of various diseases, experience highly variable wall shear stress (WSS) in vivo (1-60 dyn cm(-2)), imposing numerous effects on physiological and morphological functions. Previous flow-based systems for studying these effects have been limited in range, and comprehensive information on VEC functions...
