Pressure-induced AVIC nuclear deformation in animals may influence valve remodeling; extends mechanobiology data but leaves open human relevance.
Transvalvular pressure induces significant deformation of aortic valve interstitial cell nuclei, which correlates with tissue microstructure and collagen fiber alignment.
Huang et al. (2007) studied this question.
