Mechanotransmission of haemodynamic forces by the endothelial glycocalyx in a full-scale arterial model

The glycocalyx has been identified as a key mechano-sensor of the shear forces exerted by streaming blood onto the vascular endothelial lining. Although the biochemical reaction to the blood flow has been extensively studied, the mechanism of transmission of the haemodynamic shear forces to the endo...
