Substratum Interactions Modulate the Interplay between Endothelial Cell Phenotype, Function, and Immune Recognition
Endothelial cells (ECs) sense and adapt to their environment, allowing them to shift between a range of functional phenotypes. When connected in a monolayer they create the endothelium, a barrier and a platform from which ECs can individually respond to flow, and circulating cells and factors apical...
