Shear stress activates cellular signaling involved in cellular proliferation, differentiation, and migration. However, the mechanisms of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation under interstitial flow are not fully understood. Here, we show the increased osteogenic differentiation of MSCs under exposure to constant, extremely low shear stress created by osmotic pressure-induced flow in a mi...
FIG. S1. Influence of shear stress on cell directionality. (a) The polar histogram demonstrates distribution of angles of net migration vectors for a population of 100 cells; in the absence of any shearotactic signal (σ = 0 Pa) random cellular migration is observed. (b) Shear stress level of σ = 0.05 Pa with a population of 126 cells. Even at such exceptionally low shear stress level, we observ...
The adaptation of vascular endothelial cells to shear stress alteration induced by global hemodynamic changes, such as those accompanying exercise or digestion, is an essential component of normal endothelial physiology in vivo. An understanding of the transient regulation of endothelial phenotype during adaptation to changes in mural shear will advance our understanding of endothelial biology ...
We demonstrated recently that plasma concentrations of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, are increased by high salt intake concomitantly with a decrease in plasma levels of NO in human hypertension. We investigated the effect of shear stress on ADMA release in 2 types of cells: transformed human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs; c...

Background: Interstitial flow in and around tumour tissue not only has particular importance in delivering anticancer agents to tumour tissue, but also affects the microenvironment to modulate tumour cell growth and metastasis. We investigated the roles of flow-induced shear stress in modulating radiosensitivity in two colon cancer cell lines and the underlying mechanisms. Materials and Methods...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Luminal shear stress has been reported to constrict cerebral arteries and arterioles of several species. Although the endothelium is not required for this response, it is not known whether the endothelium enhances or attenuates shear stress-induced constrictions. METHODS Middle cerebral arteries (MCAs) were isolated from male Long-Evans rats, mounted in a tissue bath, a...
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are mobilized from bone marrow to peripheral blood and contribute to angiogenesis in tissues. In the process, EPCs are exposed to the shear stress generated by blood flow and tissue fluid flow. Our previous study showed that shear stress promotes differentiation of EPCs into mature endothelial cells. In this study, we investigated whether EPCs differentiate i...
Extracellular finger domain modulates the response of the epithelial sodium channel to shear stress.
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) is regulated by multiple extracellular stimuli, including shear stress. Previous studies suggest that the extracellular finger domains of ENaC α and γ subunits contain allosteric regulatory modules. However, the role of the finger domain in the shear stress response is unknown. We examined whether mutations of specific residues in the finger domain of the α ...
Previous studies have demonstrated that a high level of shear stress can produce platelet aggregation without the addition of any agonist. We investigated whether high shear stress could cause both platelet aggregation and shedding of microparticles from the platelet plasma membrane. A coneplate viscometer was used to apply shear stress and microparticle formation was measured by flow cytometry...
To know the role and initiation mechanism of the interaction of glycoprotein (GP) Ib with surface-immobilized von Willebrand factor (vWF), we examined the effect of shear stress levels on platelet binding to vWF-coated plates using a cone-and-plate type viscometer capable of loading various levels of shear stress. The extent of platelet binding to immobilized vWF reached a plateau at the shorte...
