Abstract:
Angiogenesis within atherosclerotic plaques is a critical determinant of plaque stability.The biome-chanical microenvironment,consisting of fluid shear force,plaque structural stress,and matrix stiffness,serves as signifi-cant factors in mediating plaque angiogenesis.Endothelial cells respond to mechanical signals and participate in plaques neovascularization through force chemical signal transduction mechanisms.This review provides an overview of the mecha-nisms by which mechanical factors regulate angiogenesis within plaques and offers a novel therapeutic approach for the pre-vention and treatment of atherosclerosis.
