Shear stress-induced changes in the expression level of Krüppel-like factor 2 (KLF2) mRNA in HUVEC under static, laminar flow and oscillatory flow conditions for different shear durations, with applied shear stress of 15 dyn/cm2. It reveals a significant increase of KLF2 mRNA level under laminar shear (LS); however the KLF2 expression remains at the control (static) level under oscillatory shear (OS)
