Effect of increasing stretch while reducing pressure and shear stress on flow-stimulated NO production by isolated, perfused TALs. Luminal flow was maintained at 20 nl/min. Treatment of TALs with collagenase (collag) increased stretch (seen as a 24 ± 2% increase in diameter), lowering both shear stress and pressure (*P < 0.03; n = 6).
