Applications of Cell Culture Under Flow: Endothelial Response to Shear Stress

The webinar will provide an overview on endothelial cell response to flow. Discussions will highlight how different blood flow profiles influence the endothelial cell phenotype. Since blood flow in the vascular network is not uniform, certain blood vessel regions are more susceptible to the cardiovascular disease atherosclerosis. A case study will be presented to illustrate the use of the ibidi Pump System for visualizing endothelial shear stress response and how laminar flow protects against atherosclerosis.
