Biomechanical Forces in Atherosclerosis-susceptible and -resistant Regions of Human Vasculature Differentially Regulate Endothelial Vaso-protective Phenotypes

摘要：

Atherosclerosis is a potentially life-threatening disease of large arteries that is strongly associated with systemic risk factors such as hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, smoking, and diabetes. However, atherosclerosis develops as a focal disease that often occurs at specific anatomical locations in the arteries of human subjects and experimental animals.
