Blood flow shear stress increases interaction events between Notch receptor1 or 4 and their ligands in the “nidus” vessel wall with time over a period of 84 days after AVF formation. Time-course of interaction events between Notch receptor1 and its ligand Delta1 ((a); r = 0.716, P < 0.05), Notch1 and Delta4 ((b); r = 0.6289, P < 0.05), Notch1 and Jagged1 ((c); r = 0.635, P < 0.05), Notch receptor4 and Delta1 ((d); r = 0.6727, P < 0.05), Notch4 and Delta4 ((e); r = 0.7258, P < 0.05), and Notch4 and Jagged1 ((f); r = 0.6937, P < 0.05), respectively. Data were expressed as means ± SE of 4 rats at each time point. *P < 0.05 paired comparison between pre- (−1 day) and post-AVF formation at different time points.
