Hemodynamic forces induce the expression of heme oxygenase in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells

Both nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) are vessel wall-derived messenger molecules that cause platelet inhibition and vasodilation by activating guanylyl cyclase in target cells. Since vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are exposed to shear and tensile stresses, this study examined the eff...
