Decoupling shear stress and pressure effects in the biomechanics of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease using a perfused kidney-on-chip
2024-06-22
Abstract excerpt
Kidney tubular cells are submitted to two distinct mechanical forces generated by the urine flow: shear stress and hydrostatic pressure. In addition, the mechanical properties of the surrounding extracellular matrix modulate tubule deformation under constraints. These mechanical factors likely play a role in the pathophysiology of kidney diseases as exemplified by autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, in w...
