Fluid shear stress threshold regulates angiogenic sprouting [PDF]
Significance A great deal of research has investigated the biochemical factors that regulate angiogenic sprouting, but less is known about the role of fluid shear stress. Some studies have suggested distinct regulation by luminal flow within the vessel vs. transmural flow through its walls.

Cancer metastasis, the process of cancer cell migration from a primary to distal location, typically leads to a poor patient prognosis. Hematogenous metastasis is initiated by intravasation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) into the bloodstream, which ...

Fluid Shear Stress Upregulates E-Tmod41 via miR-23b-3p and Contributes to F-Actin Cytoskeleton Remodeling during Erythropoiesis. [PDF]
The membrane skeleton of mature erythrocyte is formed during erythroid differentiation. Fluid shear stress is one of the main factors that promote embryonic hematopoiesis, however, its effects on erythroid differentiation and cytoskeleton remodeling are ...

Estimation of the Shear Stress Parameter of a Power-Law Fluid [PDF]
We apply the Adomian decomposition method to a power-law problem for solutions that do not change the sign of curvature. In particular we consider solutions with positive curvature. The power series obtained via the Adomian decomposition method is used to estimate the shear stress parameter as well as the instant of time where the solution reaches its ...

Endothelial cells sense and respond to shear stress. Different in vitro model systems have been used to study the cellular responses to shear stress, but these platforms do not allow studies on high numbers of cells under uniform and controllable shear ...

Shear stress, pressure, and flow rate are fluid dynamic parameters that can lead to changes in the morphology, proliferation, function, and survival of many cell types and have a determinant impact on tissue function and viability.

A cell-based sensor of fluid shear stress for microfluidics [PDF]
We present a cell-based sensor embedded in NIH3T3 cells that fluoresces upon the application of fluid shear stress (FSS), as a simple and versatile method to assess the impact of various microsystem flow conditions on cell health.

Development of a microfluidic system with a bearing micropump for applying fluid shear force in an intervertebral disc degeneration model involving mechanical stimulation [PDF]
Background The intervertebral disc (IVD) functions as a shock absorber with viscoelastic tissues, including the gelatinous nucleus pulposus and the collagenous annulus fibrosus (AF).

A method to experimentally investigate injection-induced activation of fractures
Natural fractures are generally well developed in most hydrocarbon and geothermal reservoirs, which can produce complex fracture networks due to the activation of fractures during hydraulic stimulation. The present paper is devoted to developing a method

Natural convection flow near a vertical plate that applies a shear stress to a viscous fluid. [PDF]
The unsteady natural convection flow of an incompressible viscous fluid near a vertical plate that applies an arbitrary shear stress to the fluid is studied using the Laplace transform technique. The fluid flow is due to both the shear and the heating of
