Effect of Side-Specific Valvular Shear Stress on the Content of Extracellular Matrix in Aortic Valves

Responses of valve endothelial cells (VECs) to shear stresses are important for the regulation of valve durability. However, the effect of flow patterns subjected to VECs on the opposite surfaces of the valves on the production of extracellular matrix (ECM) has not yet been investigated. This study...
