Endothelial microparticles: A mechanosensitive regulator of vascular homeostasis and injury under shear stress
Hemodynamic shear stress (SS), a frictional force generated by blood flow, regulates vascular homeostasis. High and steady SS maintains physiological function of endothelial cells while low and disturbed SS promotes disturbance of vascular homeostasis and the development of atherosclerosis. Endothel...
