Platelet Aggregation and Activation under Complex Patterns of Shear Stress

Abstract: SummaryArterial stenosis results in a complex pattern of blood flow containing an extremely fast flow in the throat of stenosis and a post-stenosis low flow. The fast flow generates high shear stress that has been demonstrated in vitro to activate and aggregate platelets. One potential problem of these in vitro studies is that platelets are invariably exposed to a high shear stress for a period that is significantly longer than they would have experienced in vivo. More importantly, the role of the poststenosis… Show more

“…Furthermore, this region is prone to ischemia and platelet activation, which may lead to cerebral infarction. 11 In the present case, TOF-MRA showed an area with signal intensity remaining lower in the immediate post-stenotic area, though the diameter of the BA lumen was restored. This area well correspond with the area of recirculating flow shown in the PIV experiment.…”

“…Platelets exposed to a shear profile containing both high and low shear rates were shown to quickly aggregate, independently of their activation level [27]. Moreover, hemodynamic alterations following PH have been proposed as the start signal for regeneration [28,29].…”

“…RDVWF (500 μl at 170 ± 40 ng/ml) was exposed to 100 dynes/cm 2 shear stress for 3 min at 37 • C on a cone-andplate viscometer (RS1, HAAKE Instrument Inc., Paramus, NJ), as previously described [15] [Figs. 2(c) and 4].…”
