Higher fluid shear stress induces endothelial cell migration against the haptotaxis. a Fluid shear at 6 dyne/cm2 induced endothelial cell migration. b Lower shear stress (2 dyne/cm2) did not reverse haptotaxis (cell migration toward the collagen lane pattern). c Higher shear stress (6 dyne/cm2) could induce cell migration away from the collagen pattern (reprinted from Hsu et al.
