Shear Stress in Autophagy and Its Possible Mechanisms in the Process of Atherosclerosis
13 Mar 2017
Abstract excerpt
Autophagy can eliminate harmful components and maintain cellular homeostasis in response to a series of extracellular insults in eukaryotes. More and more studies show that autophagy plays vital roles in the development of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial disease and shear stress acts as a key role in its process. Understanding the role of shear stress in autophagy may offer insight into...
