1. The role of shear stress in the destabilization of vulnerable plaques and related therapeutic implications

Author

Slager, CJ, Wentzel, JJ, Gijsen, FJH, Thury, A, van der Wal, AC, Schaar, JA, and Serruys, PW

Abstract

Shear stress plays an essential part in the maintenance of healthy blood vessels, and locations of low shear stress can create predilection sites for eccentric plaque growth. This review discusses the mechanobiologic mechanisms related to shear stress that might have a role in plaque rupture.

2. The role of shear stress in the generation of rupture-prone vulnerable plaques

Author

Slager, CJ, Wentzel, JJ, Gijsen, FJH, Schuurbiers, JCH, van der Wal, AC, van der Steen, AFW, and Serruys, PW

Abstract

Shear stress plays an essential part in the maintenance of healthy vessels. If risk factors for atherosclerosis are present, low shear stress can lead to abnormalities, possibly creating predilection sites for eccentric plaque growth. The role of shear stress in the development of plaque prone to rupture is explored.
