Shear stress and very low levels of ligand synergize to activate ALK1 signaling in endothelial cells
2023-11-03
Abstract excerpt
Endothelial cells (ECs) respond to concurrent stimulation by biochemical fac-tors and wall shear stress (SS) exerted by blood flow. Disruptions in flow-induced responses can result in remodeling issues and cardiovascular diseases, but the detailed mechanisms linking flow-mechanical cues and biochemical signaling remain unclear. Activin receptor-like kinase 1 (ALK1) integrates SS and ALK1-ligand cues in ECs; ALK1 m...
