| In the case of a sudden arterial occlusion or a slowly progressing stenosis, a steep pressure gradient develops along the shortest path within the interconnecting network that increases the blood flow velocity and FSS in these vessels. The effect of this sustained increase in shear is the upregulation of distinct processes in the collateral arteries. | In the case of a sudden arterial occlusion or a slowly progressing stenosis, a steep pressure gradient along the shortest path within the interconnecting network develops that increases the blood flow velocity and hence fluid shear stress in these vessels, which now assume the new function as “collaterals” [normal femoral artery blood flow 4.8 x 10-3 dyn/cm2; blood flow via anastomoses (occlusion) 889 x 10-3 dyn/cm2]. The effect of this sustained increase in shear is the upregulation of distinct processes in the collateral arteries. |
