RISThe Elongation and Orientation of Cultured Endothelial Cells in Response to Shear Stress
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vascular endothelial cells appear to be aligned with the flow in the immediate vicinity of the arterial wall and have a shape which is more ellipsoidal in regions of high shear and more ...
An Application of the Micropipette Technique to the Measurement of the Mechanical Properties of Cultured Bovine Aortic Endothelial Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The mechanical properties of endothelial cells were measured using the micropipette technique. The cells employed were collected from bovine aortic endothelium and cultured in our laboratory. ...
Vascular Endothelial Morphology as an Indicator of the Pattern of Blood Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A quantitative study of the en face size and shape of endothelial cells from aortic intercostal ostia has been carried out in rabbits. Photomicrographs were taken from vascular casts of the ...
The Application of a Homogeneous Half-Space Model in the Analysis of Endothelial Cell Micropipette Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experimental studies have shown that endothelial cells which have been exposed to shear stress maintain a flattened and elongated shape after detachment. Their mechanical properties, which are ...
Epicardial Coronary Blood Flow Including the Presence of Stenoses and Aorto-Coronary Bypasses—II: Experimental Comparison and Parametric Investigations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article is the second in a series which presents a computer model of the left coronary arteries. The first article discussed the geometry, the governing equations, and the numerical method ...
