In this review, the role of wall shear stress in the chicken embryonic heart is analyzed to determine its effect on cardiac development through regulating gene expression. Therefore, background information is provided for fluid dynamics, normal chicken and human heart development, cardiac malformations, cardiac and vitelline blood flow, and a chicken model to induce cardiovascular anomalies. A set of endothelial shear stress-responsive genes coding for endothelin-1 (ET-1), lung Krüppel-like… 

Figures from this paper

Tgfβ/Alk5 signaling is required for shear stress induced klf2 expression in embryonic endothelial cells
TLDR
Results show that, in embryonic EC, shear stress activates Tgfβ/Alk5 signaling and that induction of Klf2 is an Alk5 dependent process.
Altered Wall Shear Stresses in Embryonic Chicken Outflow Tract due to Homocysteine Exposure
TLDR
The results suggest that Hcy has an inhibiting effect on WSS in the early embryonic chicken heart, which may cause altered gene expression and behaviour of endothelial cells, eventually contributing to the development of CHDs.
The development of the heart and microcirculation: role of shear stress
TLDR
Geometry of the vascular system heavily affects the flow and shear patterns, as is the case in the adult vasculature where atheroprone areas nicely coincide with the frequency of the primary cilium as shear stress sensor.
Reduced embryonic blood flow impacts extracellular matrix deposition in the maturing aorta
TLDR
The DA's response to hemodynamic perturbations invokes coupled mechanisms for shear regulation and matrix maturation, potentially impacting the course of vascular development.
A blood flow-dependent klf2a-NO signaling cascade is required for stabilization of hematopoietic stem cell programming in zebrafish embryos.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that blood flow is essential for HSC development and is mediated by a klf2a-NO signaling cascade in zebrafish.
Lack of Primary Cilia Primes Shear-Induced Endothelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
TLDR
The central role of primary cilium is demonstrated in rendering ECs prone to shear-induced activation of Tgf&bgr;/Alk5 signaling and EndoMT and thereby provides a functional link between primary cilia and flow-related endothelial performance.
Time-Series Interactions of Gene Expression, Vascular Growth and Hemodynamics during Early Embryonic Arterial Development
TLDR
A long-term, time-lapse optical coherence tomography imaging campaign was conducted to acquire simultaneous blood velocity, pulsatile micro-pressure and morphometric data for 3 consecutive early embryonic stages in the chick embryo, and concurrent relationships were obtained among the transcriptional modulation of the genes, vascular growth and hemodynamics-related changes.
Fluid Shear Stress and Inner Curvature Remodeling of the Embryonic Heart. Choosing the Right Lane!
TLDR
The best of both worlds, mechanics and biology, are used here to describe early cardiogenesis.
Reduced Heart Rate and Cardiac Output Differentially Affect Angiogenesis, Growth, and Development in Early Chicken Embryos (Gallus domesticus)
An increase in both vascular circumferential tension and shear stress in the developing vasculature of the chicken embryo has been hypothesized to stimulate angiogenesis in the developing peripheral
Altered mechanical state in the embryonic heart results in time-dependent decreases in cardiac function
TLDR
It is shown that abnormal cardiac loading adversely influences cardiac morphology only during certain time windows, thus confirming that mechanical factors are a time-dependent epigenetic factor in relation to intracardiac forces.

Changes in Shear Stress–Related Gene Expression After Experimentally Altered Venous Return in the Chicken Embryo
TLDR
It is concluded that venous obstruction results in altered expression patterns of KLF2, ET-1, and NOS-3, suggestive for increased cardiac shear stress.
Development‐related changes in the expression of shear stress responsive genes KLF‐2, ET‐1, and NOS‐3 in the developing cardiovascular system of chicken embryos
TLDR
The results suggest that, in the embryonic cardiovascular system, KLF‐2 is expressed in regions of highest shear stress, and that ET‐1 and NOS‐3 expression, at least in the later stages, is related to shear Stress.
The Endothelin-1 Pathway and the Development of Cardiovascular Defects in the Haemodynamically Challenged Chicken Embryo
TLDR
It is concluded that cardiovascular malformations after venous clipping arise from a combination of haemodynamic changes and altered gene expression patterns and levels, including those of the endothelin pathway.
Regulation of the endothelin system by shear stress in human endothelial cells
TLDR
The data suggest the downregulation of human endothelin synthesis, and an upregulation of the ETB receptor by long‐term arterial laminar shear stress, might contribute to the vasoprotective and anti‐arteriosclerotic potential of arterialLaminar Shear stress.
Intracardiac fluid forces are an essential epigenetic factor for embryonic cardiogenesis
TLDR
In vivo imaging is shown to show the presence of high-shear, vortical flow at two key stages in the developing heart, and predict flow-induced forces much greater than might have been expected for micro-scale structures at low Reynolds numbers.
Nitric oxide synthase expression in endothelial cells exposed to mechanical forces.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that unidirectional shear stress increases eNOS mRNA expression via a transcriptional mechanism, however, oscillatory shear Stress and cyclic stretch appear to control eNos expression through posttranscriptional regulatory events.
Shear stress regulation of Krüppel-like factor 2 expression is flow pattern-specific.
Endothelial gene regulation by laminar shear stress.
TLDR
The complexity of gene regulation by hemodynamic forces is demonstrated, and the important part that these forces have in the physiology and pathophysiology of the vessel wall is supported.
