Rho Mediates the Shear-Enhancement of Endothelial Cell Migration and Traction Force Generation

The migration of vascular endothelial cells in vivo occurs in a fluid dynamic environment due to blood flow, but the role of hemodynamic forces in cell migration is not yet completely understood. Here we investigated the effect of shear stress, the frictional drag of blood flowing over the cell surf...
