Others have demonstrated that inactivation of Rho in monocytes promotes cellular adhesion to β1 integrin substrates [ 37 ] . Static cell adhesion studies rely on a number of factors including integrin affinity regulation, integrin avidity/clustering, and shear resistant cell shape changes.
The second platelet GP of interest is GPIbα, a transmembranous platelet GP (molecular weight, 143,000) that forms noncovalent complexes with GPIbβ, GPIX, and GPV to form the GPIb/IX/V receptor, which is involved in shear stress-induced platelet activation by binding to von Willebrand factor (vWF).
Samples were incubated in boiling water for 5 minutes then passed through a 20-gauge and 26-gauge needle repeatedly to shear chromosomal DNA.
The story notes that some types of accidents that used to plague airlines just ten years ago, such as wind shear and midair collisions, have become much less common, but accident rates for approach and landing remain high.
The regulation of lumenal diameter in large arteries is accomplished through the maintenance of shear stress along the arterial wall [ 38 50 51 52 53 54 ] . As blood flow through an artery increases, shear is also increased, and the endothelium releases nitric oxide for vasodilation [ 55 ] . Chronically, the arterial wall will remodel to a larger diameter to accommodate the increased flow [ 38 ] . While we did not measure arterial flow through these iron deficient arteries, the enhanced inotropic compensation to iron deficiency, combined with the enlarged aortic diameter, leads us to suspect a flow dependent mechanism for remodeling.
