Vascular endothelium, hemodynamics, and the pathobiology of atherosclerosis

Abstract

The localization of atherosclerotic lesion formation to regions of disturbed blood flow associated with certain arterial geometries, in humans and experimental animals, suggests an important role for hemodynamic forces in the pathobiology of atherosclerosis. There is increasing evidence that the vascular endothelium, which is directly exposed to various fluid mechanical forces generated by pulsatile blood flow, can discriminate among these different biomechanical stimuli and transduce them into genetic regulatory programs that modulate endothelial function. In this brief review, we discuss how biomechanical stimuli generated by blood flow can influence endothelial functional phenotypes, and explore the working hypothesis of “atheroprone” hemodynamic environments as “local risk factors” in atherogenesis. In addition, we consider the therapeutic implications of the activation of “atheroprotective genes” and their role as “critical regulatory nodes” in vascular homeostasis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
