Estrogen and vascular resistance
Current Opinion in Endocrinology & Diabetes, 1999Male sex and menopause are independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Estrogens bind to vascular receptors, including the novel estrogen receptor-β and membrane-bound receptors, and they contribute to vascular resistance through several mechanisms.

The focus of this chapter is on understanding the complexity associated with the resistance to flow through the pulmonary circulation. Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) is a variable that reflects the physical size (diameter and length) of the vascular tree at any moment in time.

The height of the systemic vascular resistance is largely dependent on the total cross-sectional area of the arterioles in the peripheral vasculature. The smooth muscle tone of these vessels is influenced by neural, humoral, and local environmental factors.

Mechanotransduction and Vascular Resistance
2014Mechanotransduction is the process by which any cell transduces (converts) a mechanical signal into chemical cues. The vessel wall is permanently sheared by the moving blood particles as well as stretched and compressed by the pressure applied by the blood.
