Abstract
The atherosclerosis (AS) microenvironment plays an important role in pathogenicity, including blood flow and blood pressure, high cholesterol, high blood sugar, angiotensin II, tumor necrosis factor, and the like. The AS microfluidic model was established, and the fluid shear stress and cyclic stretching were set to 5.07 Pa and 1.17 Hz to simulate normal blood flow, respectively. The effects of different biochemical environments on endothelial cells (ECs) and cardiomyocytes were analyzed. The results confirmed that different biochemical environments had significant damage to ECs and cardiomyocytes. Subsequently, the further effect of ECs on cardiomyocytes in AS microenvironment was studied, and the results proved that ECs caused further damage to cardiomyocytes under AS biochemical factors. We used Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs) to study the anti-AS efficiency. The results showed that the addition of Pt NPs played a particular role in the AS treatment of ECs in the AS microenvironment, and the protection for myocardial cells was achieved.
