Suggests hypertension may directly accelerate lipid accumulation following endothelial injury; leaves open whether.
In an in vitro model of deendothelialized minipig aorta, increased pressure significantly enhanced the uptake of albumin and LDL, particularly under nonstirred conditions.
Fry et al. (1986) studied this question.
