Stiff Substrates Enhance Endothelial Oxidative Stress in Response to Protein Kinase C Activation
Arterial stiffness, which increases with aging and hypertension, is an independent cardiovascular risk factor. While stiffer substrates are known to affect single endothelial cell morphology and migration, the effect of substrate stiffness on endothelial monolayer function is less understood. The ob...
