Vascular endothelial cells (ECs) are constantly exposed to blood flow–induced shear stress;
these forces strongly influence the behaviors of neighboring vascular smooth muscle cells …

Vascular endothelial cells (ECs), which exist in close proximity to vascular smooth muscle
cells (SMCs), are constantly subjected to blood flow–induced shear stress. Although the …

Endothelial cells (ECs) line the innermost of the blood vessel wall and are constantly
subjected to shear stress imposed by blood flow. ECs were also influenced by the …

Vascular endothelial cells (ECs) are constantly subjected to blood flow-induced shear stress
and the influences of neighboring smooth muscle cells (SMCs). In the present study, a …

Background: Shear stress imposed by blood flow directly impacts endothelial cells (ECs),
which are simultaneously influenced by neighboring vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) …

Vascular intervention procedures can lead to endothelial damage and expose the
underlying VSMCs (vascular smooth muscle cells) to shear stress. Although shear stress …

BACKGROUND: The structural and functional integrity of endothelium plays a pivotal role in
the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) is a …

Migration of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in hyperplasia is thought to have a correlation with
blood flow conditions. In this study, the effect of shear stress applied to endothelial cells …

Smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration from the media to the intima of blood vessels
contributes to neointimal formation and atherogenesis. Here, the authors demonstrate how …

Vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration is a hallmark of intimal hyperplasia (IH), the
progression of which is affected by hemodynamic conditions at the diseased site. The …
