After cardiovascular intervention, smooth muscle cells (SMC) are directly exposed to blood flow and thus their behavior might be affected by fluid hemodynamic forces. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of fluid shear stress on the growth rate of SMC. Human aortic smooth muscle cells (
