文摘

Artery stiffening is known as an important pathological change that precedes small vessel dysfunction, but underlying cellular mechanisms are still elusive. This paper reports the development of a flow co-culture system that imposes a range of arterial-like pulse flow waves, with similar mean flow rate but varied pulsatility controlled by upstream stiffness, onto a 3-D endothelial-smooth muscle cell co-culture. Computational fluid dynamics results identified a uniform flow area critical for cell mechanobiology studies. For validation, experimentally measured flow profiles were compared to computationally simulated flow profiles, which revealed percentage difference in the maximum flow to be <10, <5, or <1% for a high, medium, or low pulse flow wave, respectively. This comparison indicated that the computational model accurately demonstrated experimental conditions. The results from endothelial expression of proinflammatory genes and from determination of proliferating smooth muscle cell percentage both showed that cell activities did not vary within the identified uniform flow region, but were upregulated by high pulse flow compared to steady flow. The flow system developed and characterized here provides an important tool to enhance the understanding of vascular cell remodeling under flow environments regulated by stiffening.
