Vascular-type heterogeneity is associated with differential gene expression profiles of endothelial cells under shear stress [PDF]
Research and Practice in Thrombosis and HaemostasisBackground: Endothelial cell (EC) heterogeneity is an emerging area of research in EC biology. Vein, artery, and microvascular ECs have been shown to have heterogeneity in gene expression and function, termed “vascular-type” heterogeneity in this report.
