Endothelial Injury in Diving: Atomic Force-, Electronic-, and Light-Microscopy Study of the Ovine Decompressed Blood Vessels

We suggested that the nanobubbles, which appear at the active hydrophobic spots (AHSs) at the luminal aspect of the blood vessels, are the gas micronuclei from which the decompression bubbles evolve and the endothelial injury during the decompression is due to the tearing off the cell membranes with...
