Heme oxygenase 1 is differentially involved in blood flow-dependent arterial remodeling: role of inflammation, oxidative stress, and nitric oxide [PDF]
Heme oxygenase 1 is induced by hemodynamic forces in vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells. We investigated the involvement of heme oxygenase 1 in flow (shear stress)-dependent remodeling.
