The Effect of Race and Shear Stress on CRP-Induced Responses in Endothelial Cells by Chenyi Ling, Marc D. Cook, Heather Grimm, Maitha Aldokhayyil, Dulce Gomez, Michael Brown

“…More than just a pure bystander, CRP directly interacts with endothelial cells to decrease endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression and bioactivity, decrease nitric oxide (NO) production, and increase the release of vasoconstrictors and adhesion molecules. Race is significantly associated with CRP levels and CVD risks. …”
