Haemodynamic and extracellular matrix cues regulate the mechanical phenotype and stiffness of aortic endothelial cells

Endothelial cell (ECs) lining blood vessels express many mechanosensors, including platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1), that convert mechanical force to biochemical signals. While it is accepted that mechanical stresses and the mechanical properties of ECs regulate vessel health,...
