Shear stress may regulate BP via endothelial NO in resistance arteries; hypothesis-generating for human hypertension mechanisms.
Increased flow rate stimulates nitric oxide formation in endothelial cells of resistance arteries, suggesting a role in regulating systemic blood pressure.
Nakahara et al. (1997) studied this question.
