TL;DR: Information on collagen fiber waviness and orientation could be used to develop structural models of the adventitia, providing better means for analyzing and understanding the mechanical properties of vascular wall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gelsolin superfamily proteins: key regulators of cellular functions
TL;DR: This review will focus on some of the known functions of the gelsolin superfamily proteins, thus providing a basis for reflection on other possible and as yet incompletely understood roles for these proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Residual strain effects on the stress field in a thick wall finite element model of the human carotid bifurcation.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the localization of atherosclerosis in the carotid artery may be due to local variations in both fluid wall shear stress and solid wall stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of methods for estimation of total arterial compliance
TL;DR: Seven classic and recently proposed methods used for the estimation of total arterial compliance have been evaluated for their accuracy and applicability in different physiological conditions and it is shown that the methods based on the two-element windkessel (WK) model are more accurate than thosebased on the three-element WK model.
Journal ArticleDOI
RGD-Functionalized polymer brushes as substrates for the integrin specific adhesion of human umbilical vein endothelial cells.
TL;DR: The feasibility of surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization to prepare thin polymer layers ("brushes") that can be functionalized with short peptide ligands and which may be of use as coatings to promote endothelialization of blood-contacting biomaterials is demonstrated.
