In our experiments, instead, we observed that disturbed shear pressure prevents cytoskeletal reorganization by suppressing target genes, contributing in this way, towards the modification of endothelial cell morphology and alignment as shown by cell microscopical pictures. Simply because cytoskeleton can also be crucial within the upkeep of endothelial barrier function and integrity, the alteration within this intracellular structure may possibly for that reason contribute to transform endothelium permeability.
