The comparative effects of high fat diet or disturbed blood flow on glycocalyx integrity and vascular inflammation

Abstract Background and aims Endothelial surface glycocalyx shedding plays a role in endothelial dysfunction and increases vessel wall permeability, which can lead to inflammation and atherogenesis. We sought to elucidate whether a high fat diet (HFD) or disturbed blood flow conditions, both of whic...
